Thinking about making a The Italianlab booking?

The Italianlab was born out of the shared philosophy of sommelier Sara Giacomini (married to chef Diego Critelli, together they run a restaurant in Padova), Elizabeth Caddick (who together with Federico Squizzato produces Parma prosciutto in Padova), and Giuseppe Camastra (who together with Mariangela Cardone operate a restaurant in southern Italy’s Calabria). Their ethos is ingredient-driven, the idea being that if one respects the food, the rest will follow. And, with such pedigree behind them and the ability to rustle up and import the finest ingredients from regional Italy, it’s no surprise that The Italianlab’s town centre trattoria is fast becoming Wilmslow’s dedicated little Italy.

Lunch at The Italianlab is served from 11am until 3pm, and Wilmslow diners are advised to drop their usual sense of punctuality, do what the Italians do and stretch this ‘hour’ out as long as possible. Not a hard task, considering that sharing platters like the Parma prosciutto (from Elizabeth Caddick very own Paduan factory) with gnocco fritto, daily pasta dishes, gourmet Italian sandwiches, panini and piadini lie in wait alongside a stunning selection of fine Italian wines by the bottle or glass. Dinner continues the tradition, with the chef’s selected cichetti for two a popular draw for locals looking for light bites accompanied by a glass or two of prosecco in the town centre. Main courses ramp up portions with delicacies like Calabrian pasta, beef tagliata, Venetian-style veal liver and fried tuna with spicy caponata making their mark on Italianlab’s chalkboards down Hawthorn Lane. Given Wilmslow’s love of Italian class, advance reservations are advised.
