Pasta Party at Masseria – sold out-
Larry Cherubino’s Masseria recently opened its doors with seasoned Chef Ben Jacob at the helm serving authentic Italian in a sublime setting. A sensational international wine list topped off by Cherubino’s rarest “black label” beauties complements the food experience. If homemade pasta and an Italian style long table lunch is your thing then this is a must as Masseria is the best winery lunch experience to launch in the region this past year. Event date: 23rd November 2025. Event distance from Smith’s Beach resort ~ 11.6km
