In Lourinha: Iberian and Mediterranean dishes to share, Matt McConnell and Jo Gamvros share their love of Europe's bar dining culture�through 90 incredible small plates recipes from tapas to mezethes.�They explore the amazing flavours of Italy, Sicily, Portugal and Greece through recipes that inspired them to embrace and redefine bar dining culture in Melbourne. From clifftop restaurants overlooking the Bay of Naples, to family-run bars in back alleys of Seville, seafood specialists on the Portuguese coast and the incredible, bustling markets of Athens, Matt and Jo leave no snack uneaten, no market unexplored, no hidden bar undiscovered, and no recipe unwritten as they tell the story of how their infamous Melbourne bar Lourinha (named after the village in Portugal) came to be.
