Casual, honest food at a corner table: a freshly baked pinza, a platter for two, pastizzi, bagels and ftira, and cakes and scones from our own oven. Lunch, a light dinner or just a slice with your coffee.

## Pinza

Pinza is a baked flatbread, topped to order — ours comes out of the oven warm and made for sharing. It is the centre of [Fridays at the Corner](https://www.thecozycornerartcafe.com/specials/fridays-at-the-corner/), our quiet alternative to a crowded Friday night.

#### Our pinza
- **Mortadella & Pesto Pinza** · €10.00 — Fresh pesto, premium mortadella, cherry tomatoes, rocket (rucola), and Grana Padano flakes.

## Sharing platter for two

Cured meats, cheeses, olives and more, set out in the middle of the table. The platter for two includes two complimentary glasses of house wine (red, white or rosé), which makes it a simple answer to a light dinner or an aperitivo. Booking is not required; for groups, please call ahead.

#### Platter for two
- **Sharing Platter** · €22.50 includes 2 complimentary glasses of house wine (red, white or rosé) — Prosciutto Crudo, Speck Affumicato, Salami Milano, Mortadella, Spianata Romana, Scamorza, Grana Padano, Gorgonzola, Feta, olives, sundried tomatoes, peperoncini al tonno, bigilla (traditional Maltese bean dip), cherry tomatoes, fresh grapes, dried apricots, walnuts, honey and mango chutney. Served with crispy water biscuits and artisan grissini breadsticks.

## Lunch: bagels, wraps, ftira and pastizzi

For something quicker, there is a lunch list of bagels, wraps, tuna ftira, pastizzi and small plates. Vegetarian options include the pea and ricotta pastizzi, scones and cakes; the bagels, wraps, ftira and pinza contain meat or fish — ask at the counter.
