L’orecchietta

Bring a bit of Salento to Islington and to London

Salento, the South-eastern extremity of the Apulia Region, is a peninsula in the Southern East of Italy, surrounded by the waters of the Ionian and Adriatic Sea, kissed by the sun and the wind. It is an area with a very ancient.

We are really proud of our roots, and we would like to make every effort to make you love our land as much as we do. Loredana, our great chef, will let you taste this little corner of Italy and experience the passion and the enveloping hospitality which has always distinguished us. We offer typical recipes from Italy and from Apulia, fresh and genuine food accurately prepared every day, certified Italian products, simplicity, kindness, and our special manner to match these things together.
L’Orecchietta café restaurant is a tribute to Salento and its simple flavours: fragrant stuffed focacce baked every day, freshly made Panini with Italian cured meats and cheeses, fully flavoured wines, the fabulous rustico salentino and all delicatessens that we import directly from Italy. And, most importantly, homemade orecchiette (the little ear-shaped pasta typical of Puglia, our speciality!).

Orecchiette pasta are about 3/4 of an inch across, slightly domed, and their centers are thinner than their rims, a characteristic that gives them an interestingly variable texture, soft in the middle and somewhat more chewy outside. In Italy there are many mothers and grandmothers who prepare them by hand at home, and the art of pasta making is .
And then for breakfast or tea break, you have to try our home made pasticciotto salentino. Historians agree that the origins of this incredible and humble treat go back to the first half of the 18th century (1745, to be exact) and that it was born in the village of Galatina.
This pastry from Lecce & the Salento region is as much a symbol to this part of Italy as the croissant is to France. The pastry consists of a short crust pastry filled with pastry cream. There are many variations of the pasticciotto. Typically, in addition to the pastry cream, you can find a film of chocolate cream or cherry preserves. Surely, Londoners will love it!

We look forward to meeting you… and you?

Agrumia – Online Shop

Agrumia is your Italian deli online for all of your Italian food requirements. This online delicatessen offers you a wide range of products – from foodstuffs to ceramics, from premium wines and oils to beautiful gift baskets.

Francesco Amato, the founder of Agrumia, has spent over two decades in the food industry, covering a variety of different roles and truly perfected the research and delivery of the finest cuisine. It is after these years of experience in sourcing only the best products did Francesco decide to branch out and strive to provide these products to a broader public. After all it wouldn’t be fair to have kept them only within a close circle of people in the know and he knew what clientele from across the globe would desire.

This capacity was also due to the fact that Francesco has lived and worked in a multitude of countries – from Italy to Thailand, from Egypt to Germany – to finally take roots (once again) in London and create a base here from which to spread his knowledge on Italian products. So Francesco set about to bring the most desired and delicious products available – products that were of superior quality and rich in tradition and yet comprising modern techniques (without ever compromising standards). It is from the knowledge and knowhow of its founder that Agrumia is able to provide superior prices at reasonable prices.

History of Agrumia
On the one hand you have Cousin Gino Amato, a pioneer in the production of Limoncello with an artisanal liqueur laboratory in the beautiful territory of Ravello, on the Amalfi coast. His aim was to recreate the ancient recipes of Italian tradition, starting with liqueurs and then expanding into a series of delicatessen products – with a core focus on the Amalfi coast and citrus fruits.

It was due to Cousin Gino’s effort, as well as those of other lemon growers in the area, that the Italian authorities have recognised the P.G.I. standards – lending the Amalfi coast even more fame.
