New Harvest EVOO Pairing Dinner at Baccalà

A seasonal Italian extra virgin olive oil dining experience

At Baccalà, Extra Virgin Olive Oil is at the heart of our cooking.
This New Harvest EVOO Pairing Dinner celebrates the arrival of freshly pressed Italian olive oils, paired with seasonal dishes designed to highlight their vibrancy, bitterness, and depth. This is not a tasting about olive oil — it’s a dinner built around it.

Each course showcases a different new harvest olive oil, sourced from small Italian producers and paired thoughtfully with seafood, vegetables and desserts by Chef Moreno.

What to expect?

Our EVOO Pairing Dinner is a seasonal tasting menu curated by Chef Moreno, designed to show how olive oil can shape flavour, texture, and balance across a full meal.

Each course is paired with a different Italian EVOO, highlighting:

  • regional varieties

  • aroma, bitterness, and spice

  • how olive oil transforms food when used with intention

The menu evolves with seasonal produce and market availability, ensuring every experience is fresh and relevant.

Forget wine pairings, this is the new boast"

Why EVOO matters?

For us, extra virgin olive oil is not just an ingredient—it’s a story.A story of place, season, and the people behind each harvest. As Moreno puts it: “We choose oils that tell a story: a region, a grower, a harvest. Our role is to help guests taste that story.”
