TOZI celebrates with limited-edition Big Five menu
Five days, five regions, five Italian pasta classics. This October, TOZI Restaurant & Bar in Victoria is celebrating National Pasta Month with The Big Five, a new sharing menu from Executive Chef Maurilio Molteni.
Available Tuesday to Saturday, each day brings a different regional pasta dish, served family-style for three to five guests – a fitting nod to TOZI’s name, Venetian slang for a close-knit group of friends. Diners can also opt for a specially selected wine pairing from Senior Restaurant & Bar Manager Stefano Meloni, with wines sourced from small batch producers across Italy available by the glass, carafe or bottle.

Wednesdays: Gnocchi alla Romana
