There’s an old Italian saying that when you’re sitting around the table, you don’t grow old. Maybe it’s because life slows down there. Plates are passed. Glasses are refilled. A meal that was supposed to last an hour somehow carries on for three.
That idea sits at the heart of Cucina Buca, a modern Italian inspired trattoria in Midtown Toronto. Handmade pasta, focaccia di Recco and dishes cooked in our Josper charcoal and wood-fired oven reflect a kitchen guided by care, carefully chosen ingredients and its own interpretations of Italian cooking. In the dining room, service follows your pace.
Because food is only part of what brings us to the table. The rest is the time we spend there.
