PITT’S PICK
Sicilia
from Luigi Panini
Mortadella, stracciatella, house-made pistachio pesto with pistachio crumb and rocket on ciabatta
You guessed it… I went back for more of Luigi’s panini. Zero self-control when it comes to good bread.
This time I went for the Sicilia because mortadella is basically my comfort zone. First bite, the mortadella was still slightly cool, which I actually love. It keeps that silky texture and clean flavour.
The stracciatella though… super creamy and rich. I’ve noticed their cheese so far is creamier and thicker than normal, and it really shows here. It adds that lush layer without making the sandwich feel heavy. The pistachio pesto was done nice and light, more like a supporting act rather than overpowering everything. And that pistachio crumb gave a subtle crunch that made each bite a bit more fun.
Ciabatta was spot on again. Light, chewy, easy to eat. Honestly feels like something I could have daily and not get bored.
At this rate I might be back again next week 🤣 The Milano is looking dangerously tempting with the toasted walnuts and honey combo… and you already know I’m a sucker when it come to honey and cheese!
