We didn’t walk 500 miles, but we drove 1,000km… surely that counts?

MELBOURNE, YOU’VE DONE IT AGAIN! 🇮🇹❤️

Three years in a row at the Melbourne Italian Festa.
Every year we say we know what we’re getting ourselves into. Every year we’re proven wrong.

It doesn’t get any easier, but somehow it gets more fun, and the people just keep getting better. We’re not sure what Melbourne’s putting in the water, but keep it coming.

To everyone who purchased, followed, stopped for a chat, shared a laugh, sang along or just came over to see what all the commotion was about - GRAZIE MILLE! ❤️

To the familiar faces who return every year, we love that you haven’t had enough of us yet.
And to all the new faces, it was an absolute pleasure meeting you!

From our entire Amatos famiglia, thank you.
Every purchase, conversation and bit of support means the world to our little family business from Leichhardt.
Taking a piece of our Little Italy to Melbourne is something we look forward to every year, even if our feet have a different opinion.

Now, just because we’ve left Melbourne doesn’t mean you have to stop supporting us!
Find us online, keep following our antics and stay tuned for what’s coming next.

After all, we’re celebrating 50 years in 2027. You didn’t think we’d keep that quiet, did you? 👀

Melbourne, until next year. Same place, same people, probably twice as much luggage.

Lots of love (and tired feet),

The Amatos Famiglia ❤️

Melbourne, before anyone gets offended… we’re joking. Mostly 👀😂

All jokes aside, we love Melbourne, we love the people, and any city that loves its Italian food, w**e and famiglia as much as we do is alright in our books 🇮🇹❤️

So we’re putting the Sydney vs Melbourne rivalry aside (temporarily) and bringing a little bit of Norton Street down south for the Melbourne Italian Festa!
And we’re not coming empty-handed! 🇮🇹

We’ve packed a little taste of Italy, including:
🍋 Cremoncello, amaro and Italian liqueurs for tasting
🇮🇹 Over 50 different Italian tea towel and apron designs (yes, FIFTY!)
🏺 Italian ceramics made especially for Amatos
🫒 Olive oil straight from the REAL Sorrento (Italy, not Victoria… no offence 👀😂)

Everything straight from Italy, with a little Amatos personality thrown in!
📍 Royal Exhibition Building & Grounds, Carlton
📅 Saturday 17 October: 11am – 10:30pm
📅 Sunday 18 October: 11am – 8:30pm
🎟️ FREE ENTRY!

Come find the Amatos crew, say ciao and see what we’ve brought down from Sydney’s Little Italy!

Now, before we go… let’s settle this once and for all.
SYDNEY or MELBOURNE? 👀
We’re staying out of this one. 😂
👇 Let the comments decide!

Third time’s a charm, Melbourne! 🇮🇹🤌

We’re back for another Italian Festa, and we’re bringing a little piece of Norton Street with us. See you this weekend, 17–18 October! ❤️

From Europe to South Australia, the Amatos team has been clocking up some serious kilometres lately. All in the name of quality market research, of course 🍷🇮🇹

This time, Daniella and Bernie made their way to the Adelaide Hills to visit Longview Vineyard!

Family-owned by the Saturno family since 2007, Longview brings a little Italian soul to the Adelaide Hills. Known for their award-winning, estate-grown w**es, Northern Italian influences and beautiful vineyard setting, they’ve combined the best of Italian hospitality with South Australian w**emaking 🍇
And with a cellar door serving seasonal, locally sourced food, it’s not exactly a difficult place to spend an afternoon!

We sent them to investigate the w**es, and judging by the text message, the food and hospitality were just as impressive. Tough gig, this market research business 🙃
A big thank you to Peter and the Longview team for the warm service, superb food and incredible w**es!

We’re starting to think our staff have taken the term market research a little too seriously 😂

Franc’s restocking the Amaro collection at home🥃
Apparently, someone’s been a little too enthusiastic with the after-dinner drinks *Cough cough *👀

Good thing he knows a bottle shop.
For those unfamiliar, Amaro is Italy’s bittersweet herbal liqueur, traditionally enjoyed after a meal. And with over 40 different bottles from all across Italy on our shelves, Franc’s got a bit of choosing to do.

His picks?
🥬 Elisir Di Carciofo – Made with artichoke. Getting your greens in, technically.

🍃 Dalloro – A Sicilian bay leaf Amaro. Turns out bay leaves have more uses than sitting in Nonna’s pasta sauce.

🥃 Punch Evangelista – 35% or 45%? We’ll let you guess which one Franc prefers.

The fourth bottle? That’s your job.
Tell us what Amaro Franc should add to the collection.

Although, judging by how quickly the last lot disappeared, we might need a fifth.

Grace & Martin take Italy 🇮🇹 -  Part 1

28 years in the making… and they finally made the trip ❤️🇮🇹
Naturally, Martin got straight to work with a very thorough tour of the local beers 🍺

Market research. Very important stuff.
Whether this qualifies as a work expense is between Martin and the accountant 😂

P.S. We sell Ichnusa. Research complete 👀

Stay tuned for Part 2…

Four dinners. Four venues. One bottle shop. Plenty of vino 🇮🇹🍷

And just like that, our Tour of Little Italy is done 😢

A massive grazie to the incredible restaurants who welcomed us, the w**eries and companies who brought the good stuff, and most importantly, every single person who joined us around the table❤️

Four dinners wouldn’t have been much fun without you lot.

Now? Maybe we behave until Christmas. Maybe…🎄

Because next year, Amatos turns 50… and we’ve got 50 years to celebrate.

We’re not going about it quietly👀

Watch this space….

Four dinners. Four venues. Four iconic companies. 🇮🇹

And just like that… our Tour of Little Italy has come to an end.

For Chapter IV, we went From Nord to Sud with Piccini W**es taking over La Botte D’Oro for one final night of Italian w**e, food, famiglia and plenty of stories around the table. 🍷🍝

After 49 years in Leichhardt, nights like these are exactly why we do what we do. Bringing together the people, producers and restaurants that make our little corner of Sydney feel a whole lot like Italy.

A massive grazie to Piccini, La Botte D’Oro and everyone who joined us for the final chapter and to everyone who came along for the ride across all four dinners.

The Tour of Little Italy is officially complete. 🇮🇹❤️

Now… onto 50. 👀
