He furthered his education by undergoing extensive culinary training in Italy and has been able to continue his parent's legacy of bringing unique and incredibly authentic Italian dining to Calgarians. One of the most revered of these ventures is Ristorante Pulcinella, where Domenic first earned distinction when his international training crossed borders and entered Calgary in the spring of 2006. One of the few APN (Associazione Pizzaioli Napolitani) certified pizzerias in the world, Domenic has been able to showcase his culinary skills, incredible wine knowledge, and passion for Italian cuisine to provide Calgary with a truly artistic, original and delicious experience not soon to be forgotten.

    Mercato is one of my favourite places in the city. Once again the food was fabulous from appetizers through to the best espresso and the service is always, always exceptional. You can not go wrong with anything on the menu or the daily feature. This is a special place. Thanks for another lovely experience.

    We went to the Clos de Oyster Barre pop-up event because it sounded right up our alley: oysters, champagne, hip hop music and candlelight. It was exactly what we hoped for! Amazing ambiance and very interesting and fun menu. Great music that kept us entertained as we chatted and the service was phenomenal! Taylor and the other servers along with the kitchen staff did an amazing job and we would recommend to anyone who wants to have a special experience.
