About FORKETTA - Dempsey Hill
ABOUT FORKETTA since 1993 Forketta's reputation has been forged together with the wood fired baked sourdough pizza and organic fresh pasta, both carefully prepared daily to maintain the freshness our food is known by. We carefully recreate preceding generations' traditional recipes. We are proud to say that this requires hard work, just as it did back in the day. Far from daunting Forketta, which has been adapting Italian heritage recipes to modern dining trends for several years.
