Rascal’s Head Chef, Kyle Nicol (ex-Supernormal), has teamed up with mate Poodle/Rocco’s Head Chef, Josh Fry (ex-Marian and Cumulus Inc) to put together an At-Home and weekend sambo shop menu that channel Italian Trattoria/Nonna’s house vibes.
“We are thrilled to be working together. We have wanted to do something for a while, with lockdowns giving some opportunity for something different. We are looking forward to bringing some of Rocco’s signature Italo-dishes to Brunswick, adding a few Rascal touches.” Say Kyle Nicol.
