Have you tried our delicious made in house focaccia?

We love our beautiful hand painted mural by long time friend Gabry, of Gabry Fine Art.

Gabry paints beautiful landscapes and was a perfect choice for the Italian countryside mural Gino envisioned for the dining room.

The scene is of Pompei, a city in southern Italy’s Campania region that is overlooked by the active volcano at Vesuvius. Pompeii was an ancient city which was buried by the 79 A.D. eruption of Mount Vesuvius.

We love the warmth the new mural brings to the restaurant. See the before and after in our latest blog post on our site (link in bio to read).

If you’re looking for custom art, murals or hand painted ceramic tiles contact Gabry Fine Art at (905) 857- 6047 for an appointment.

Repost from our pals Eating YYZ

Nothing cures the midweek blues more than eating a delish piece of pizza. Venga serves up some Roman style pizza called pinsa that will win you over (we hope). Calabrian nduja, neapolitan cured hot sausage pepperonata, fior di latte and sun-dried tomatoes. Taste. Try. Comment. 😁

Venga Cucina is the vision of Gino Benevenga from the Campania region of Italy. He brings a little piece of his motherland to Toronto’s Junction neighborhood. Gino has perfected the craft of the Roman-style flatbread pizzas and is one of only two certified masters in Canada to offer authentic pinsa romana at his restaurant. Try ‘em! 🥰

Pizza, Pinsa, Pizza, Pinsa! 💚

Toronto Junction

Venga Cucina is the culminated vision of restauranteur Gino Benevenga. Hailing from Campania region of Italy, Gino brings a little piece of his motherland to Toronto’s Junction neighborhood.

Gino has perfected the craft of the roman-style flatbread pizzas—the pinsa romana—and is one of only two certified masters in Canada to offer authentic pinsa romana at his restaurant.

The pinsa is heralded for its crunchy exterior, its light and airy pockets in the center, and its digestibility; all due to a select blend of cereal flours and high hydration.

Pinsa is a style of hand-pressed pizza dough that has been a part of Roman artisan baking and cooking for over 100 years.

The name pinsa is derived from the term “pinsere,” which means “push the dough by hand” in Latin.
