Italian restaurant Pulia to open in Borough Market
Called Pulia, the 60-cover restaurant will open at 36 Stoney Street on 3 November with a menu inspired by the south of Italy.
Dishes will include regional antipasti such as frisella bruschetta with capocollo ham, rocket and balsamic vinegar, and burrata from Andria with cured ham alongside mains such as a traditional beef sausage spiral from Bari; and cuttlefish stuffed with breadcrumbs, parmesan and parsley.
There will be also be a selection of fresh pasta to include hand rolled strozzapreti with grilled tuna, aubergine and pachino tomato sauce as well as pizzas such as stracciatella cheese; spicy 'nduja; and black truffle.
The restaurant’s design will have a muted colour palette with the use of natural materials such as wood and stone designed to represent the southern Italian landscape.
The dining room will also feature a large central bar at which diners can order an aperitivo and snacks such as wholewheat taralli, made with white wine, flour and olive oil, and focaccia served straight from the oven.
It will mark the second new restaurant to open on Borough Market’s Stoney Street in a matter of weeks, following the launch of premium sandwich player Sons + Daughters’ second venue on the site that was previously home to 26 Grains.
