About
The great ethos of TortelliniCup is to combine the quality of real traditional Italian food with the modern concept of take away. Visit our kiosks, and you'll be greeted by the enticing aromas offering you "a new way to taste Italian tradition". Italian food has long been synonymous with health, tradition, culture, history and authentic taste. At TortelliniCup, we prepare our menus with love and passion; our food is the result of ancient recipes, handed down through our families for generations. Tortellini originates from our home town of Modena (a small town in Northern Italy) and is known for its production of the famous Italian sports cars, big Tenor and most importantly, Tortellini! The legend says the tortellini recipe is original dates back to 1500 when a modenese cook, in love with a dame of the town, peeped and saw her navel through the keyhole. Charmed by this beauty he wanted to reproduce its shape by inventing the Tortellino. Modena has many other historical culinary traditions too which include delicacies such as Tigelle, Parmesan, seasoned Balsamic vinegar, Gramigna and delicious Vanilla custard balls. The Tigelle recipe originated in the Appennines mountains where people used to use the locally available products such as chestnut flour which is very similar to wheat flour and was easily found even during famines. Tigelle were prepared and cooked by the fireplace in between special stones, called 'Tigelle'. We've packaged these Italian delights up in a handy take away cup, ready to be enjoyed "on the go" at any time of the day. All items are cooked fresh to order by our chefs right in front of your eyes.
