Fife & Farro:
Some of the most comforting and classic items in the world are Pizza and Pasta, adored by millions. It is the food we seek out for lunch, dinner, snacks, as an emotional hangover, or to get children to sit and eat. The smells of the oven mixed with the beautiful shapes of the pasta make for a crowd pleasing experience. This is at home in Texas where our wheat belt is vast and celebrates the expansiveness of our state. We are making an approachable concept more elevated through its sourcing and production quality. A couple things make huge differences in both pasta and pizza. The grain, the fermentation and autolyze, the extruder, and often the ingredients. The antipasti section will celebrate light and seasonal items from the market and Texas while the pasta and pizza will offer showstopper items that you will want to eat three times a week.
