A Table for Our Empoli Famiglia
La Botte D'Oro is proud to be the official dining partner of Empoli Calcio Sydney — the football school built with Empoli FC, and home to 1,700 players and their families. As part of the convention, members and their families enjoy 15% off dinner, Tuesday to Thursday, at Leichhardt's authentic Italian restaurant since 1977.
Forza Empoli · A community convention in Sydney's original Little Italy.
The Convention
Authentic Italian hospitality for Sydney's Italian football family.
Empoli Calcio Sydney was built in collaboration with Empoli FC and has grown into one of the city's largest football schools — 1,700 players and, behind them, 1,700 families who share a love of the Italian game.
La Botte D'Oro has fed Leichhardt — Sydney's original Little Italy — for nearly fifty years. As official dining partner, we're opening our table to the Empoli community with a warm welcome, a members' offer for the whole family, and dedicated packages for post-match and end-of-season team dinners.
Forza Empoli. Benvenuti alla nostra tavola.
