This post is an entry for the BritMums #PrezzoLaFamiglia Challenge, sponsored by Prezzo.
When BritMums asked people to take part in the Prezzo La Famigila challenge I had a little chuckle to myself. If like me, you love Joey from Friends or Smithy from Gavin and Stacey, you would know that this concept wouldn't sit well with them. However, as a Mum of three who hates the confusion of trying to get her boys to actually decide what they want to eat in a restaurant the concept of ordering one big bowl of pasta for everyone is quite appealing. Ordering is simple and easy, leaving more time to relax and chat.
So easy infact, I had decided what we would have before we had even arrived at the restaurant. There are 4 La Famiglia sharing bowls to choose from: Penne Arrabiata, Spaghetti Bolognase, Spaghetti Carbonara or Penne Alla Rusticana. We opted for the Spaghetti Carbonara which is a firm favourite with my boys. Alongside the sharing bowl we were treated to two large garlic breads. I love the addition of balsamic onion on these.
Sharing the Spaghetti Carbonara out was a serious business. Middle man was keen to have as much of the crispy Parma ham as possible! The portion was a really good size. It is suggested for 4 people but along with the garlic breads there was more than enough for our family.
For dessert, my husband couldn't resist the honeycomb cheesecake whilst I opted for the blood orange sorbet. Both equally good. Middle man even said that he preferred my sorbet to his chocolate ice cream, so it nice!
We are now looking forward to trying out some more of the Prezzo menu at a near by restaurant. Have you been to Prezzo recently? Do you like the idea of sharing your meal?
We were provided with a voucher to pay for 4 people.
