simply Favoloso!
Set on (another) of York's crowded, but cute city streets, La Bottega Delle Langhe a truly wonderful Italian deli. But wait that is not all, it has just recently expanded to include a petite, but perfectly formed cafe. Once only a compact two rooms cramped full of the best of Italy, now La Bottega is set over five floos! YUM! The narrow space that La Bottega occupies means that it is literally crammed of the best from Italy! And yes eerything's in Italian!
SO walk through the front door, past the tempting deli counter (if you can, don't worry you have to pass again on your way out!) and towards the back you will discover space for around seven tables in the newly refurbished courtyard setting. The menu is a mixture of real Italy with sublime and tasty offerings to share across mixed plates, salads, sweets and the freshest of fresh ingredients designed to tempt and make the mouth water.
Who could resist wonder such as 'drunken' mountain cheese, prosecco, fresh olives, hams, tomatoes and too many little delights to mention!
The owner Otto is from Le Langhe - hence the name, an area he has assured me is famed as much for its fresh mountain air as for the cheeses and wines (well naturally!).
Both Otta and his partner Heidi describe themselves as 'natural foodies' , and what could be more natural than the enjoyment of something Italian and rather splendid. So La Bottega has become my little w/e treat.
But why stop there, why not an all week treat too!
