It's truffle season.

Happy New Year!


We hope you had a wonderful festive season spent with family and friends, and that you are looking forward to 2025 as much as we are. Also, a big thank you for being here with us — it really means the world to share the NONA life with you!


This month, there are some very special new recipes arriving on the menu, so we are giving them our full attention in this newsletter.


Let’s get straight to the good stuff, shall we?


Team NONA

It’s truffle season.


Starting on a high, we are so excited to be launching two truffle (or tartufo!) dishes this season — one pizza, one pasta — both with the same combination of sautéed mushrooms, organic sausage meat, and a rich cream of black truffle.


Why has it taken us so long to add truffles to the menu, you might be asking? No one knows. But these two dishes were certainly worth the wait.

To brighten up these winter days


We have a refreshed From Dries With Love vegan pizza with sautéed Brussels sprouts, caramelised onions, fresh radicchio, and a base of topinamburg (Jerusalem artichoke).


A reminder that January can, in fact, grace us with a bit of colour!

The ultimate chef’s special


Taking our beloved winter pasta sauce of slow-cooked beef and caramelised onions and reimagining it as a pizza topping, we have the Ragu Genovese pizza.


Our pizzaiolos have kept this dish to themselves until now, secretly popping over to Pasta St Cat for a bit of ragu to put on their own lunch-time pizzas. When the rest of the team found out about it, we knew we had to add it to the menu — it’s just too good!  

A Roman classic


Last, but certainly not least, is our Cacio e Pepe.


This dish is a celebration of simplicity. The ingredient list is short: a handful of the finest pecorino, lots of black pepper toasted in the pan to release its aromatics, and fresh maccheroni cooked al dente. But it takes a magic touch to bring this dish to creamy perfection.


Well. A magic touch and a dash of pasta water.
