The Italian term sagra is used to define a local festival where a specific local food is celebrated in a banquet of wine and food.
This is an invitation to join us at di Lusso Estate Estate for our fourth annual festival at di Lusso Estate, to celebrate the glorious fig! Here's part of the menu I’m considering so far…

ENTREE: Caramelised shallot, onion and fig relish crostini.
PASTA: Fresh fig, prosciutto and pine nut fettucini, served with toasted goat’s cheese and squash blossom salad.
MAIN: Chicken fig saltimbocca and Italian Luganega sausage infused with dried figs and fennel.
