Cucina di Strada at Chalk Hill Wines

Cucina di Strada, South Australia’s newest pizza destination can be enjoyed with a wine, gin and sweeping McLaren Vale views. Their unique  pizza “pinsa” is “between Neapolitan and Roman-style pizza”, says Adelaide pizza maker Ettore Bertonati. He's developed the thicker, but still light, focaccia-style dough, which is pushed out by hand and baked in a tray on stone. Unlike Neapolitan pizza, which requires folding – or even cutlery – the sturdier pinsa can be eaten with one hand while holding a drink. Other food offerings will include meatballs, croquettes and traditional sweets such as pizzelle. In this stunning setting you can grab your pizza, throw a rug out on the lawn and relax with glass of Chalk Hill Wine or a Gin from Never Never distilling
Open Thursday to Monday: 11am - 5pm (closed Tuesday and Wednesday). Bookings are essential.
