Streetsmart FOH All Stars Dinner

Ladro-Sean-Kierce-FOH-Allstars-StreetsmartSTREETSMART AUSTRALIA PRESENTS
FRONT OF HOUSE ALL STARS DINNER

If you haven’t heard about Streetsmart Australia and all the wonderful work they do, led by founder and CEO Adam Robinson, then you need to!
Since 2003 Adam has led a growing team including the organisations patron Tim Costello (CEO World Vision) to raise much needed funds to beat homelessness. All funds raised are donated to grassroots organisations via grants to help those in need and raise community awareness about homelessness. 
Tonight, as we have done for many years, Ladro will be participating in the annual Front of House All Stars Dinner to raise funds for Streetsmart Australia. Last year, along with half a dozen restaurants, we managed to raise a fabulous $25,000.00 on the night! Tonight Sean Kierce (co-founder Ladro, smiling above) along with one of our chefs will be donating food, time and expertise and we hope to beat last years figure…this years FOH All Stars Dinner will be held at Union Dining.
…Go Sean + dig deep tonight folks!
If you can’t make it tonight and want to make a contribution go here.

10 x 10 x 10 Feast #3 TEA

Ladro_TEA_FEAST#3Continuing on with our 10th Birthday celebration FEASTS, we are very excited to announce 10 x 10 x 10 FEAST #3…TEA!
We have partnered up with the worlds best tea purveyor (in our humble opinion) Storm In A Teacup, who happens to be our neighbour in Smith St and tea supplier.

Storm In A Teacup are serious tea geeks and we are collaborating with them to bring you a 10 x DISH FEAST using tea in every dish. Think tea smoked meats, tea infused panna cotta, edible tea leaf salads and no tea feast would be complete without a tea-tail…or should that be cock-tea’s?
Btw, Hannah + Misha from SIATCup will be there to talk all things tea…and believe us, they know their leaves!

This is sure to be a sell out feast + seats are limited so get in quick…’cos it’s great value for 10 x dishes.
Grab friends, colleagues, tea + foodie heads or even your neighbour like we did!

Ladro ‘Sweet 45’ Movie

PIXELTRADE-LADRO-MOVIE
It was truly inspiring and a great pleasure to do a ‘trade’ with photographic guru Shantanu Starrick from The Pixel Trade. You’ll see some of the fine photos Shantanu shot on his website and we’ll be posting them through out the year. He was also kind enough to rustle together this cool little 45 second movie of Oscare making one of our biggest selling pizza’s…The Putanesca…from dough ball to table via the 450deg wood fired oven. Hmmm, just watching it makes us hungry all over again.
Watch the 45 movie and feel free to share!
