Top Italian chef, Theo Randall is setting up a pop-up restaurant at food event La Dolce Vita, on 11-14 March 2010.
The event held at the Design Business Centre in Islington is in its sixth year and the four-day celebration of all things Italian promises to be bigger and better than ever.
Highlights of the show will include masterclasses with celebrity chefs, wine tasting and demonstrations by some of Italy's top artisan producers.
Last week, I was lucky enough to get a taster of Theo's food and any visitor to La Dolce Vita will be in for a treat.
First up was the buffalo mozzarella (picture aboved). It was served with grilled red peppers, spinach, marinated artichokes and Taggiasche olives.
Second course was a beautiful pasta dish of slowed-cooked veal, pancetta with truffles (below)

The main course was slow-cooked lam shoulder with Taggiasche olives, anchoives, wet polenta and Cima Di Rape (below)

The lunch finished with Theo's Amalfi lemon tart...

If that has whet your appetite, we have 20 pairs of tickets to giveaway, courtesy of the La Dolce Vita organisers.
All you need to do to tell us what is your favourite Italian recipe, ingredient or restaurant and you will be entered into the prize draw. But hurry the closing date is midday Friday 5 March!
