RISO - Tradizione, Cultura e Cucina - (RICE - Tradition, Culture & Cuisine)� Celebrate Italian Cuisine with a Rice-Inspired Feast!
Once a rare Eastern luxury, rice quickly became a beloved staple across Italy — a symbol of abundance, family, and celebration. From Milan’s golden saffron risotto to the rich seafood risottos of Venice, from Roman supplì to Sicilian arancini, rice unites the Italian peninsula through timeless traditions and regional flavours. Italian rice is more than a crop — it’s a story of heritage, craftsmanship, and a deep love for food passed down through generations.
As part of the Worldwide Week of Italian Cuisine, proudly promoted by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Italian Consulate of Brisbane, we invite you to a delicious journey dedicated entirely to this cherished ingredient.

Each course of this unique dinner showcases a different variety of premium Italian rice — Vialone Nano, Carnaroli, and Arborio — through beloved regional recipes that tell the story of Italy’s culinary heritage.
ENTRÉE
Traditional Roman recipes featuring Vialone Nano rice
� Pomodori Ripieni di Riso ed Erbe al Forno- Oven-baked tomatoes generously filled with seasoned rice, garlic, fresh herbs, and olive oil. A rustic Roman summer dish, full of flavour and served warm or at room temperature.
� Supplì al Telefono- Crispy Roman-style rice croquettes with a heart of gooey mozzarella and savoury tomato ragù. Named for the string of melted cheese that stretches like a telephone cord when broken open.
MAIN COURSE
Featuring Carnaroli rice — the King of Risotto
� Risotto alle Cicale di Mare - An elegant fusion of Italian tradition and Australian seafood. Carnaroli rice is gently simmered in a rich lobster bisque, finished with Napoli-style tomato sauce and a touch of fresh cream. A refined and luxurious main course.
DESSERT
Featuring Arborio rice
� Riso al Latte con Limone e Vaniglia- A comforting dessert from Northern Italy. Arborio rice is slowly cooked in milk with sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest until creamy and aromatic. Served chilled, and garnished with candied lemon or cinnamon for a sweet, nostalgic finish.
