Lunch Menu
Dearest Guest,
Every year I am pressed to plan for “what is next.” In our 20th year, I beat the drum for our new bread and pizza dough!
Obsessive-compulsive to improve, our new locally sourced flour is stone milled, organic, and GMO-free. My impulse is satisfied!
Our new flour is milled from whole grain (the wheat germ, bran layer and endosperm) which exposes a richness in both flavour and nutrients. Together with a proper proofing period, our bread pays homage to a tradition of artisanal baking.
At Bar Mercurio we are determined, dynamic, and appraised of current culinary trends (i.e. gluten free), and as such, we propose to break through to a new, yet classically inspired, culinary frontier.
I feel we have returned to someplace special. Have a taste for yourself.
Buon Appetito
Giuseppe Mercurio

To the dearest listener:
Our household organic flour is custom milled for us by 1847 Stone Milling. Stone Four is crafted by milling the entire grain betwen two large natural stone grinding wheels. The slow, cold grinding is believed to maintain the nutritional integrity of the grains and preserve the natural vitamins and oils.
Pizza, pasta and bread must be both healthy and immensely delicious. Our children will love us for this pursuit of culinari qualità.
THIS IS MY COMMITMENT
