Santa, the Gourmet Pizzeria in Desenzano del Garda reopened on the lakefront after a short autumn break on November 18 and is getting ready for a weekend full of delicious news: seasonal Gourmet Pizzas paired with local, km0 wines. The restaurant has designed new hot dishes, soups and veloutés made with seasonal organic vegetables such as pumpkin, onions and Jerusalem artichoke. Santa's Mantuan cuisine, built on traditional flavors, warms up the lakeside winter in Desenzano: pumpkin tortelli, fresh porcini tagliatelle, Mantuan capunsei, Brescia-style casoncelli. This and much more on our menu, with more the taste of a cozy osteria than a simple restaurant.

Today we present the off-menu pizzas, the Autumn ideas you can preview on our social channels, by following us on Instagram and Facebook: @santapizzaitalia

• La Sostenibile: whole-wheat pizza base with DOP Mantua pumpkin cream, fried pumpkin, fried carrot peel, toasted almonds, yellow cherry tomatoes and rosemary from Santa's own garden.
• Pizza e Fichi: semi-wholewheat pizza base with tomato, mozzarella, 24-month Parma ham and fresh seasonal figs.
• L'imboscata: semi-wholewheat pizza base with pumpkin cream, porcini mushrooms, Taleggio, smoked Angus beef, walnuts.

Until the end of November they will only be available at our restaurant pizzeria on lungolago Cesare Battisti in Desenzano del Garda, where you can enjoy them right by the lake! Our seasonal offerings can only be ordered in the individual aureola size, with a dough made from natural flours of your choice: classic (semi-wholewheat), wholewheat, gluten-free (naturally gluten-free).

Fast and professional service from a young, skilled team, full of talent, that enthusiastically and with creativity manages to craft fine-dining recipes at a fair price accessible to everyone. We'll soon be publishing our New Year's Eve menu, which will include dishes rooted in our heritage, simple but authentic flavors combined with what we do best: Contemporary, innovative and sustainable pizza.
