Founded in 2017 by three friends Naman Dhandhania, Raghav Kapur and Rohan Ireland, Fabbrica Originale in Allenby Road and in Salt Lake’s City Centre 1 has been serving Italian cuisine that blends traditional Neapolitan roots with a modern touch. The Italian restaurant now has a third location in the city at 18A, Park Street, at the heart of the city’s food scene. My Kolkata takes you on a virtual tour of the new Fabbrica Originale outlet

The two-storey, 3000-square-foot space of Fabbrica Originale in Park Street can accommodate 94 covers. The interior offers a fine blend of classic European designs with modern aesthetics. Photographs from the streets of Italy and some innovative signage set the mood for the pizzeria and dining destination
The second floor has lounge-like vibes and a minimalistic decor with blank walls and dim lights, with sofa and chair seating around marble-top tables, and is accented with lamps and indoor plants. Talking about the new Park Street eatery, creative director Naman Dhandhania said, ‘Our new flagship outlet marks a significant milestone for Fabbrica. The expanded space has allowed us to fully bring our creative vision to life, offering a more immersive and experiential dining experience that we’ve always envisioned’
The menu at Fabbrica Originale continues to serve Italian cuisine aiming to transport its patrons to the European food destination. Besides their handmade pizzas like the (in picture) Margherita Con Bufala and regional handmade pasta such as Mafaldine al Tartufo, diners can enjoy starters like Marinated mixed olives, Arancini ‘cacio e pepe’ and more
The bar features aperitif-forward cocktails that complement the culinary offerings. Fabbrica also has a comprehensive wine list. ‘We’re particularly excited about our aperitif-forward cocktail programme and carefully curated wine list, both designed to elevate the dining experience. We can’t wait for our guests to enjoy what we’ve crafted here,’ said Rohan Ireland, COO
Fabbrica Originale in Park Street is open from noon to 11.30pm on all days. The approximate pocket pinch for two is Rs 2,500 plus taxes. They are also available on Swiggy and Zomato. Signing off, Raghav Kapur, CFO said, ‘With this new location, we’re able to expand our offerings and give our guests a wider menu that reflects the diversity and quality Fabbrica is known for. This new space allows us to push our culinary boundaries’
