We want your family to eat only the best, which is why we know that food is about so much more than taste alone. Texture, colour and smell all play a part in the wonderful ensemble that is the perfect dinner. For this dish, we combined the chewy deliciousness of gnocchi and the colours and smells of fresh basil and cherry tomatoes, to create a symphony that would even make Mozart proud.
