Marco Pierre White has revealed plans for a new “ultra-casual” dining concept known as Bardolino Pizzeria Bellini and Espresso bar.
One of the first outlets will now open at theclub at Cadbury House, just outside Bristol, in June.
The restaurant takes its name from the town where Marco’s mother was born, and will feature an all-day express menu of authentic Italian food, coffees and Bellinis. There will be a focus on both pizza and pasta.
Speaking of the new venture, White said: “Bardolino represents affordable, friendly and casual dining with recognisable family favourites and classic Italian dishes. I truly believe that Italian food is affordable and delicious.
“Bardolino is a restaurant concept created for both discerning diners and aspirational families alike. After all, pasta is a child’s favourite food.”
The menu will feature a variety of authentic stone-baked pizzas from the Zingara with ham, mushrooms and truffle oil to the Bresaola e Mozzarella with cured beef, tomatoes and mozzarella. There are also various homemade pasta dishes that have been created using some of Italy’s finest ingredients.
