This Father’s Day, Gusto Urban Italian is swapping ties for tiramisu and socks for sirloin with a celebration worthy of every dad’s appetite.
It’s time to ditch the generic gifts and raise a fork to the man who raised you—with flavor, flair, and a side of Italian charm.
A Menu Made for Main Characters (a.k.a. Dads)
Gusto’s Father’s Day Menu, available exclusively on 15 June 2025, is a love letter to Italian cooking—with a few bold surprises thrown in. Whether Dad’s into rustic comfort food or something a little more refined, this three-part feast hits every note:
Antipasto:
-
Fegatini di Pollo alla Italiana – Chicken livers done the Italian way, spicy and saucy with toasted sourdough.
-
Funghi Ripieni alla Caprese – Baked portobellos stuffed with mozzarella and tomato, perfect for vegetarians.
Primo (Main Event):
-
Ravioli di Agnello e Pistacchio – Handmade lamb and pistachio ravioli in a rich jus, paired with a glass of Badsberg red.
-
Filetto di Manzo con Costa – A glorious 400g sirloin on the bone, with herbed butter and parmesan mash. Served with a Woodford Reserve bourbon to seal the deal.
-
Padri Hake e Patatine – Beer-battered hake with triple-cooked chips and romesco mayo, paired with a complimentary Gusto Lager for peak dad energy.
Dolce:
-
Amaretto Velvet Panna Cotta – Light, silky, almond-kissed and finished with raspberry compote. Because Dad has a soft side too.
