Benvenuti a Casa Barilla!

It is with great pride we offer you a centre for Italian cuisine and culture right in the heart of Sydney. Our new cooking school, Casa Barilla is dedicated to sharing the best of Italy with you; the best Italian produce, recipes and information to ensure you take away a greater knowledge and passion for Italian food and culture.

Casa Barilla is a little Italy in the heart of Annandale with a specially designed SMEG kitchen, hands-on classes, special guests, cultural and culinary seminars, food and wine tastings, an in-house Italian culinary resource library, and last but not least a 100% Italian chef, air freighted directly from Milan!

Barilla has brought out an executive chef from Italy to head up the Casa Barilla kitchen. Luca Ciano, who has worked in Michelin star restaurants in Italy and has gained experience internationally for the past 10 years, has created a range of Italian cooking classes and tastings for all ages and areas of interest including fresh pasta making, cheese and wine tastings, baking, risotto classes, and cooking with Barilla products. Casa Barilla is also a base for the CIRA Cooking School run by the Council of Italian Restaurants in Australia (see www.cira.com.au), which will present a number of special events throughout the year including cooking classes and dinners featuring traditional Italian cuisine and regional specialties.

Casa Barilla is available for private functions including cocktails, lunches, dinners, corporate team building events, seminars, conferences or product launches. All events can be catered for by our Italian executive chef with the help of the Barilla event management staff. For information and bookings please contact Mairead O'Connor, at casabarilla@barilla.net.au or on (02) 8585 3911. Buon appetito a tutti!
