Impressive how something as innocuous as mortadella is rendered so tasty with dobs of umami tuna aioli and lashings of olive oil, chilli and orange honey. The salty meatiness of the ham is tempered by the sweetness, spiciness and richness of the aforementioned ingredients, working harmoniously together. Even the humble arugula has it’s place on the plate, contributing crunch and peppery herbaceousness.

This was the second sharing plate of Gastrosmiths’ exclusive Burpple set menu for 2, which is a steal for only $62+ for #burpplebeyond subscribers. Hurry before they shut their doors at the the end of May!

Taste: 3.5/5
