A few panini, made the right way: our philosophy since 1980
Our menu offers only a few panini: 40 years ago, there weren’t all the variations we know today, and Cigheddu’s first panini were simple, focused on the quality of the ingredients our land had to offer. Despite all the evolution, that philosophy remains the same today.
We are certain that, to guarantee the quality of what we offer, the best approach is to focus on the historic recipes that have accompanied Nuoro for over 40 years, and evolve from there, perfecting them day after day.
So, you won’t find a hundred panini here, as you might at any other paninoteca. This is because:
too many variations are almost always a sign of low quality
those who make every type of panino imaginable, at prices that seem convenient, often use industrial ingredients of questionable origin
too many variations increase the margin for error and make careful study of ingredient pairings pointless, ultimately reducing the value of each individual ingredient
Our promise has always been the same, since 1980: we make only panini that taste like Sardinia, and we do it better than anyone else.
At Cigheddu you will find ONLY ingredients from our territory, because here, every panino speaks Sardinian, just as tradition demands.
Welcome to Cigheddu. Today, just like in 1980.
