Experience an expertly crafted, Neapolitan-style pizza for less than your
tube fare at Il Leopardo, London’s new suavest restaurant launched by the makers of
Pizza Italiana Moderna, Crosta Mollica. This concept pop-up combines Italian style
and passion for the highest quality pizza, served up from just £2.50 – the same price
as a Crosta Mollica Pizza Base in most supermarkets.
Crosta Mollica’s range is labelled Non Per Tutti –
“Not for everyone”
– reserved only for
those with excellent taste, and their Il Leopardo pizzeria is no different. Italian
traditions are taken seriously, and for those who choose to stray from it, there will be
surprises in store – whether you request BBQ chicken, add a pineapple topping or
leave your crusts.
Opening its doors for just two days only on Friday 16th and Saturday 17th May, Il
Leopardo restaurant will welcome those who truly appreciate the art and
craftsmanship of Italian pizza, so quickly secure your spot via CrostaMollica.com
whilst it’s hot.
With the option to dine in or take an al fresco seat outside, guests can also enjoy an
aperitif from the bar, including the classic Italian Spritz, wine and beer (non-alcoholic
options available).
Staying true to traditional serves, pizza lovers are able to customise a Crosta Mollica
Pizza Base with a curated list of toppings to choose from (including vegan, dairy-free,
and gluten-free options). Each £2.50 pizza base includes two complimentary
toppings. All authentic Italian toppings – such as mushrooms, Prosciutto Crudo,
Parmesan and Nduja – are available to add for just 50p each, while the less authentic
ones will be priced at £1.00. Crosta Mollica’s Tartufi gelato truffles will also be on offer,
allowing guests to get their hands on a drink, pizza and dessert for £10 or less.
What if you’re struggling for choice? No problem. To ensure all guests experience the
best Italian pizza on offer, Il Leopardo will have on hand a ‘pizza toppings sommelier’
,
an expert in Italian flavour pairings who can advise on topping combinations
especially suited to each guest’s tastes. However, just like in Italy, there is no place for
the likes of pineapple and BBQ chicken toppings. So if you don’t follow tradition, be
prepared to be placed on the ‘Muro della Vergogna’ (aka ‘Pizza Wall of Shame’) for
any culinary faux pas…
There is more: Italian dining etiquette will also be followed. Knives and forks will be
discouraged as pizza is to be eaten with your hands like a true Italian. Leaving your
crusts behind? No, grazie. When as good as Crosta Mollica’s, there is no reason not to
give crusts a chance.
Il Leopardo celebrates the launch of Crosta Mollica’s new bold identity introduced
earlier this year, which embodies Italy’s passion for flavours and style – this is a pizza
brand like no other. The pizzeria is proudly named after the brand’s striking new
leopard icon which symbolizes the distinctive ‘leopardised’ crust – the hallmark that
sets the brand’s sourdough pizza range apart.
If you know good pizza, you know Crosta Mollica. If you don’t, Il Leopardo pizzeria will
show you how it’s done. Don’t miss the chance to experience London’s hottest
pop-up pizzeria from just £2.50 a pizza – an unmissable event for true pizza
connoisseurs.
