Piad’Amore

Specialties

Piad’Amore is our Italian way of making sandwiches using authentic Italian flat bread known as Piada or Piadina. Light, crisp, yet soft and delicious, it is a healthy and nutritious alternative with fewer carbohydrates and calories than traditional bread. The original recipe originates from Emilia Romagna in Northern Italy dating back to the 14^th century. Piad’Amore revolutionizes the sandwich by bringing the Piada to America. Made fresh daily to order, our Piadas are filled with authentic imported quality Italian ingredients including Prosciutto di Parma, Valtellina bresaola, fresh buffalo mozzarella, Pecorino, Parmesan cheeses, the best olive oil together with fresh seasonal vegetables and herbs locally sourced. Gluten free, organic, whole wheat, sweet and savory versions are available.

With so many possibilities, our Piadas make the perfect choice for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert or snack served fast, conveniently and always wholesome.

Occasionally, we would also eat stuffed calzones and from the very first bite was a feast of flavor and color.

Summer holidays were typically spent visiting my aunt in Emilia Romagna located in Northern Italy. Customary upon my arrival was to immediately visit the local Piadina street vendor and eat a delicious Piadina, the traditional handmade Italia
