Meet our Lasagna al Pesto ๐ŸŒฑ

Most people grew up thinking lasagna only comes one way.

Red sauce. Layers. Baked until golden and crispy.
But there's a whole other version.

Fresh spinach sheets, housemade Pesto Genovese with organic basil, flour from a 100-year-old Italian mill, and a cheesy mornay that pulls the whole thing together ๐Ÿง€

Rich, green, comforting, and definitely not your everyday lasagna.

๐Ÿ“ Find it fresh at 337 Oakwood Ave or 3601 Highway 7 E

Rain, cold, sun, repeat ๐Ÿ˜…

Good thing lasagna doesn't care what your weather app says.

Ontario-raised beef slow cooked for 16 hours, housemade sheets, flour from a century-old Italian mill, finished with Grana Padano.

Warm, rich, and the only reliable thing about this week.

Thereโ€™s a second story to this oneโ€ฆ but Iโ€™m not telling ๐Ÿคซ

Behind the Counter with lโ€™Americano. The sandwich, not the drink.

This one goes back to late nights in New York. No plans, no hotel, just wandering until we landed exactly where we were supposed to be.

So we brought that energy back to Toronto and gave it the Nonna Lia spin.

Pastrami stacked into housemade focaccia, full-sour pickles, and mustard mayo tying it all together.

The name?

Thatโ€™s the second story, and that one is staying with me ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Some sandwiches need a story.

This one doesnโ€™t.

Prosciutto di Parma, creamy burrata, sun dried tomato pesto, housemade focaccia.

Thatโ€™s really all you need to know.

Simple, Italian, and very easy to think about again at 2pm ๐Ÿ˜…

We all know the person ๐Ÿ˜…

They say โ€œjust one bite.โ€

Then somehow half the sandwich is missing, the mortadella is gone, and your trust is broken.

All thanks to Il Mortazza.

Mortadella, burrata, pistachio pesto, Nonnaโ€™s spicy sauce, and warm Genovese focaccia.

Rich, messy, a little dangerous, and absolutely not built for casual sharing.

Honestly, same ๐Ÿคฃ

Our Lasagna Bolognese takes 16 hours before it even reaches the final layer.

Ontario-raised beef, sweet plum tomatoes, housemade lasagna sheets, Grana Padano, and a level of patience most of us do not have on a Thursday night.

Rich, comforting, and exactly how it's meant to be.

Started as a staff craving. Now on the menu ๐Ÿฅช

For weeks, around 1pm, our front-of-house team would quietly disappear to grab Tuna Melts.

So eventually, we stopped asking questions and made our own.

Tongol tuna salad, aged cheddar, and our house-made focaccia.

Crispy, melty, and. . .well, it looks like they were right ๐Ÿง€

โ€ฆand we are here to change that ๐Ÿ’š

Fresh spinach based lasagna sheets, made in-house from scratch.

Green pasta can raise a few eyebrows, but this is where it starts to make sense.

Made with flour sourced from a 100-year-old mill in Italy, every sheet is rolled, cut, and prepped fresh before becoming our vegetarian Lasagna al Pesto.

A little behind-the-scenes preview of something you might not expectโ€ฆ but definitely wonโ€™t forget.

Youโ€™re going to want to see the final result ๐Ÿ‘€

๐Ÿ‘‡ First reaction: intriguedโ€ฆ or skeptical?

The tomato asteroid is here ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฆ–

If you asked me what the most expensive sandwich to make in 2026 would be, I definitely wouldnโ€™t have said Caprese.

But here we are.

Tomato prices are up 300%. I had to double, then triple check the invoice to make sure I wasnโ€™t hallucinating ๐Ÿ˜…

Good news is we are still rocking it in the kitchen.

๐Ÿ… Fresh hot house tomatoes.
๐Ÿ… Juicy baked grape tomatoes.
๐Ÿง€ High-quality fior di latte.
๐ŸŒฟ And our house basil pesto with hydroponic Genovese basil.

At this point, it might be the most luxurious thing on our menu. So yeahโ€ฆenjoy it while we still can.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Send this to a tomato lover before they become a luxury item ๐Ÿ…

Sometimes, the team wins the battle ๐Ÿ‘‡

If there's one thing I've learned, itโ€™s that around 1pm each day our front of house team quietly disappears to load up on Tuna Melts.

After watching them devour one too many, we finally decided to make it official.

A Tuna Melt loaded in a Focaccia Sandwich.

The testing process brought back memories of childhood days getting toasty at the beach, and the final result somehow managed to impress even the toughest critics in the building ๐Ÿง€

A breakfast sandwich like no other๐Ÿ‘‡

What started out as a fun idea during a trip to Europe turned into a full blown sandwich line up.

Four unforgettable options we canโ€™t stop dreaming about:

๐ŸŸ Smoked Salmon
๐Ÿ” Breakfast Sausage
๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Smoked Meat & Egg
๐ŸŒฑ Veggies

All stacked inside our latest bread creation.

Slightly sweet, slightly savoury, and ridiculously fluffy.

Weโ€™ve been testing these behind the scenes, and itโ€™s a definite โ€œgo aheadโ€.

Hereโ€™s the only catch: you canโ€™t get them just yet.
