On the 2nd of September, we were privileged  to host an exclusive Ardor Gluten-Free Night at Pizzeria Adamo in Geelong. This event was dedicated to celebrating our shared commitment to inclusivity, ensuring that everyone, regardless of dietary needs, can indulge in exceptional food.

Our menu for the night featured a diverse selection of gluten-free dishes, ensuring no compromise on flavour:

Starter: Sicilian Arancini with Napoli Sauce & Polpette con Sugo

Pasta: Gnocchi 4 Cheese (lactose or vegan option with pesto), Traditional Lasagne (lactose or vegan option) & Spaghetti alla Norma

Pizza: Margherita with Buffalo, yellow tomatoes, and drizzled pesto (lactose or vegan option available) & Osso Bucco with sauce reduction, braised beef, wild rocket, and saffron oil (lactose option available)

Dessert: Cannoli with Ricotta, cacao, and candied almonds & Belgian Waffles with berry compote, mascarpone cream, and Canadian maple syrup (lactose or vegan option available)

Drinks: San Pellegrino & Acqua Panna & Prosecco, White & Red Wine curated by De Bortoli 

In addition to the delightful menu, the vibe at Pizzeria Adamo was unmatched, with a diverse gathering of food lovers and coeliacs eager to explore Ardor’s gluten-free offerings. Vince Lotito passionately explained how he crafts gluten-free versions of traditional favourites without sacrificing texture or taste. The event was a testament to the idea that gluten-free dining can be just as indulgent, flavourful, and satisfying. The warm reception and enthusiasm from attendees have inspired us to continue expanding our range, bringing delicious, inclusive dining experiences to more communities.

A heartfelt thank you to Pizzeria Adamo for hosting this wonderful evening and supporting our mission to erase the distinction between gluten-free and non-gluten-free dining. Together with Ardor, we believe everyone deserves to savour authentic and delicious culinary experiences.
