Birra Moretti perfectly complements the smooth creaminess of this authentic risotto. The light flavour of the beer refreshes the palette with its clean edge whilst not overpowering the tatste and texture of this rich and hearty meal.

The trick to this tender, succulent roast chicken is the overnight brining. We usually roast chickens breast side down to ensure tender breast meat.

The garlic flavor is subtle, not strong or overwhelming, due to roasting the garlic first.
