La Tana

La Tana — loosely translating in Italian to “The Den” and pointing to the idea that this was the home of our beloved Fox, Savio. An old world-inspired establishment, Caffè La Tana is styled after the Italian alimentari: a small,neighbourhood gathering place serving pastries and simple meals; brewing strong, Italian style espresso; making fresh pasta in house; and stocking the finest imported Italian meats, cheeses and dry goods.

Bedecked with deep green marble, antique shelving and custom woodwork, classic tiled flooring, and a tailor-made, hand-drawn wallpaper, the space is a physical manifestation of the Italians’ age-old gift of making art out of life, as best exemplified by the Pasta Fresca station, where guests can watch the pastaio’s labour of love in progress.
