Marco Pierre White has launched a new menu at his Bardolino restaurant at theclub, Cadbury House in Congresbury.

Featuring an all-day selection of authentic Italian food, coffees and Bellinis, the new-look menu is focused around Pierre White's belief that good quality food should be an experience that is shared and enjoyed with friends and family, whatever the occasion and includes a mix of classic Italian-inspired dishes.

As you'd expect from a restaurant that has Italy at its heart, customers can expect a variety of authentic stone-baked pizzas, Al Forno pasta and Mediterranean inspired salads.

New to the starter's menu is a delicious crispy butterfly prawn fritto misto, while new additions to the Al Forno selection include penne arabiatta, chilli, cherry tomatoes, fresh basil; baked Tuscan sausages, cannellini beans, pomodoro sauce and rigatoni ragu of Scottish beef bolognese with aged Italian cheese.

The new pizzas are just as tantalising and two novel burgers have been added, or for those wanting something a little lighter there's new grilled shrimp avocado caesar salad which includes croutons and Italian cheese.

Marco said: "The new menu offers a fresh alternative, where authentic, uncomplicated food is served promptly. We want groups of friends to come in for a lunch or dinner. It's not pretentious, it's just good food, served in a great environment."
