FOOD EDITION
START YOUR DAY THE ITALIAN WAY
Restaurant chain Prezzo is opening its doors to serve breakfast for the first time ever from its premises in Cambridge. Starting at just £4, it will be serving up a unique Italian-style breakfast menu – offering delights such as the Full Italiano, a Dolce Pizzulata and the Breakfast Pizzulata. The latter consists of a pocket of hand-shaped, slowly proven dough oven baked and filled with ricotta, spicy Calabrese ketchup and your selection of sausages, bacon or fried eggs. “As a food team, we’ve spent many early mornings scouring markets across Italy, venturing from cities in the north all the way to the south. With our mission to share the joy of Italian dining, it’s here where we were inspired to bring together Italian breakfast – consisting of espressos and plenty of conversation – with traditional British breakfast staples,” comments Olly Smith, the restaurant’s chief culinary and brand officer.
