Four entrepreneurs who previously ran the restaurant Pinces founded this establishment to merge traditional Italian pizza methods with French ingredients. The project grew from a desire to unite both culinary traditions.
The place blends Italian pizza traditions with French regional products like Savoie cheese, Laguiole charcuterie, and Provence tomatoes. Diners experience a kitchen that merges regional French flavors with classic Italian techniques.
The restaurant sits on Rue de Douai and opens for lunch and dinner throughout the week, staying open until 23:00 on Fridays and Saturdays. Visitors should plan to explore the different dining areas and choose a spot based on their preference and the time of day.
The dough undergoes a 72-hour maturation period before being baked for exactly 2.5 minutes in a wood-fired oven. This extended fermentation and precise baking time create a distinctive texture and depth of flavor.
