Vapiano, the fast-casual pizza-pasta chain from Germany, is to host a 15-day olive festival at its two restaurants in London.
The festival, ‘Viva Oliva’, will focus on a range of meals and dishes featuring olives. It will run from Sunday April 21 to Sunday May 5 inclusive at its restaurants in the West End and City.
Olives will feature in a number of specials, including pizza, pasta, salad and bruschetta. The restaurants will also feature a tasting bar offering a range of olive oil creations as well as olive oil dip spice and olive oil salt. There will also be olive ciabatta.
On each of the three Sundays during the festival, diners will be able to enjoy a new creation served in a glass. They are; olives and cucumber (April 21), olives and bell pepper (April 28) and olives and feta (May 5).
Vapiano managing director Phil Sermon said: “Both of our restaurants have an olive tree in the dining area and it is an important aspect of Vapiano. The olive festival is a fun way of offering a range of new dishes with olives as a central feature.”
