👨‍🍳 Enzo Olivieri: between tradition & innovation

Our Sicilian Chef underlines the importance of following Italian traditions and culinary culture without forgetting about innovation and integration of “new ways”.

In particular, he speaks about the way we present our creations: you should also please the eye, not only the stomach.

Where does the border line between tradition that’s not boring and innovation that doesn’t destroy stand in your opinion?

🍝 Pasta: FRESH, every single day.

At Bottega & Cucina, Francesca and her team craft pasta by hand, mixing Italian tradition and heritage: flour, eggs, skills and love unite to form a pillar of the Italian culinary culture.

The difference?
✓ Texture that holds sauce perfectly
✓ Flavour you can actually taste
✓ Cooked to perfection

Could dried pasta save time? Sure.
Would Francesca ever allow it? Absolutely not.

Come taste the difference: your fork (and stomach!) will thank you 😋

👨‍🍳 Chef Enzo: Fake Italian & Italian Sounding

Multicultural cities, like London, offer a great variety of food options and experiences. At the same time, variety often comes before quality, leaving the chance for confusion and damage…

Italian sounding brings not only an economical damage, but also a cultural loss: this is why we seek to protect Italian cuisine from false myths and misinformation 🇮🇹

👨‍🍳 Tips, from one restaurateur to another

1-Know the language: certainly not a given: immerse yourself in the culture of the place you are living in, from every point of view.
Show people you care.

2-Study your situation: what’s new about your format? Try to find a niche and dive deep into it by providing something new and different to your audience.
No time for imitation in highly competitive sector.

This is what is behind the succes of Gerardo and Brigitte… right after their love for Italian cuisine!

WHY being picky about TAKEAWAY 📦

Bottega & Cucina offers you a 'smart' takeaway option: simply put, takeaway is not always possible. Why? Let's hear it 👇🏼

Here's Francesca's philosophy:
"Some dishes are meant to be enjoyed the moment they leave the kitchen. Their magic exists in that precise moment: the texture, the temperature, the aroma, the way everything comes together on the plate".

🚫 What’s NOT available for takeaway:
-Risotto (loses its creamy texture)
-Certain fresh pasta dishes (timing is everything)
-Dishes that rely on immediate plating... and anything that won't taste as good 15 minutes later!

✅ What IS available for takeaway:
-Porchetta and cured meats
-Robust pasta dishes like lasagne
-Homemade desserts
-Products from the bottega (you can find them at the deli counter!)
-Anything that keeps its quality once you've arrived home.

The owner refuses to let the customer experience Italian food at anything less than its best: this isn't about limiting service, it's about respecting both the food and the customer.

This is the difference between selling food and serving it with integrity 🇮🇹
