What is antipasto?

Traditionally served before the main course, antipasto is a generous platter filled with an array of cured meats, cheeses, marinated vegetables, olives, and crusty bread. The beauty of antipasto lies in its variety, allowing you to mix and match your favourite ingredients to create a colourful and inviting feast. Whether shared with family or served at a gathering, an antipasto platter brings a touch of casual elegance to the table.
