I was lucky enough to attend Nico’s salami making event, and had a fantastic time and learnt heaps!! You can tell Nico is passionate about what he does, and he’s so generous with sharing his knowledge. I’ve been back to try the Uruguayan sausages, the bacon, and they are super tasty and reasonably priced. Stoked to find quality meats in this area.
