The House Of Peroni Residency To Bring Italian Piazza To East London

For anyone who has yet to visit an Italian marketplace in the summer, The House of Peroni Residency will be bringing the closest thing you’ll get to it to London this May. Inspired by the Italian Piazza, The Residency will be transforming 152 Brick Lane into a metropolitan garden with food, drink, music, and more. In order to create an authentic atmosphere, set designer Simon Costin has designed a beautiful experience for visitors to enjoy. With a mezzanine level perfect for “people watching those below” and seeing the chefs create your food first-hand, the upper level will have archways inspired by the piazza’s of Italy. In addition, flower artist Rebecca Louise Law will capture the fresh, magical essence of the piazza in summer by hanging thousands of flowers and herbs from the ceiling.

And of course, what would Italy be without its cuisine? The Residency will feature Michelin-starred chef Accursio Craparo, who will be making his debut to the London food scene. Craparo will create a six-course tasting menu for guests to enjoy as part of a dining experience at The Residency. The menu’s ingredients will evoke the tastes and smells of the Italian Piazza, taking diners on a journey from the early morning birdsong to the evening aperitivo. In addition to the cuisine, award-winning Italian molecular mixologist Simone Caporale will feature inventive Peroni Nastro Azzurro-infused drinks also drawing from the aromas and surroundings of the marketplace.

The visitors can book places for these immersive events and experiences at The House of Peroni:

Culture of Coffee – Coffee is more than a beverage to Italians, and the practice of drinking it more than just a habit. Guests can enhance their experience at the caffè as they learn about the culture of coffee in Italy, and are exposed to a bespoke menu with innovative blends and tastes from coffee partner Caffè Molinari.

La Dolce Granita – Indulge your taste buds at The House of Peroni’s granita bar.
