It rained all day yesterday so I did what anyone would do. I collected sustenance and barely moved from my favourite reading spot and enjoyed the latest WILLIAM BOYD installment. Bruno was in the shed all day working on his arrows - a wild boar hunting trip is on the cards. When is Gabriel Dax going to visit Calabria - I think it’s time!

Forgive the earnest Canadian-ness for a moment please. These photos are from a patch of trees just below our house. A decade ago they were all suffering, some didn’t have much life left in them at all. They have been showered with love and energy not just by us but the lovely people who join us here. Bruno has studied printing techniques, soil regeneration and spa treatments. This year they are bountiful. If you are having a bad day, a bad season or even a bad year please be kind to yourself. Let all the love in and know that the bounty is coming! Sending you a teary eyed bear hug!

Bruno is in Canada for ten days on a well-earned trip to the wild North Shore of Quebec. But first my folks had to fuel him up with his first Hawaiian Pizza! Hmmm… I wonder if it will make it on to the menu?

Pane Cupatu is a dish traditionally served during the olive harvest when you’re in need of a hearty meal. Considering we’re all starting 5 weeks of school holidays we figured you might need some fuel! Roast sausages, potatoes & peppers served in a sourdough package.

What people say
Il Sovrano London, located in Tulse Hill, is a deli that offers an exceptional culinary experience. The owners of this family business are passionate about their craft and it shows in every aspect of their operation. They take great care to source the finest ingredients from trusted suppliers, such as Elderflower, and even harvest some themselves, like the wild oregano they use in their dishes.
Their commitment to quality is evident in the way they treat each ingredient with care and attention. For example, every tray of focaccia is given a deep tissue olive oil massage before being served. And when their beloved team member Matheus left after a year of service, they expressed how much he had become like family.
Il Sovrano London's dedication to excellence extends beyond just their ingredients and staff. They keep their customers informed about changes in their offerings, such as switching to a new Puglian source for olive oil due to a lack of Calabrian harvests. And despite recent reviews criticizing their prices, they remain committed to providing the best possible experience for their customers.
Overall, Il Sovrano London is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking high-quality deli fare made with love and care.
