Paski Vineria Popolare is a restaurant and bottle shop by celebrated Sydney wine figure Giorgio De Maria (who was behind the now-closed 121 BC Enoteca and co-creator of natural wine festival Rootstock), Mattia Dicati of Vino Mito Wine Imports and chef Enrico Tomelleri, formerly of Ragazzi, Alberto’s Lounge and 10 William Street. The two-storey venue on Oxford Street comprises a bar and bottle shop on ground level, inspired by the enotecas and bottecas of Italy. On the menu are a dozen meats and about the same number of cheeses from Australia, Italy and France. Bite-sized dishes include oysters, olives and pancetta-wrapped mussels, skewered and grilled.
