Insider Dining Tips
•Basilico Trattoria Truths
•Start with antipasti before ordering mains - their bruschetta and carpaccio make perfect preludes that won't fill you up before the main event.
•When ordering pizza, consider one per person or sharing two between three people - Basilico's wood-fired crusts are substantial but too good to waste.
•Save room for dessert - the authentic Italian gelato and tiramisu provide the perfect conclusion to your meal.
•Don't rush through courses - embrace the leisurely Italian dining pace that Basilico cultivates in their Newlands location.
Insider Tip
•Monday Madness offers two-for-one pizzas all evening - perfect for date night or bringing along a hungry friend.
