At Luce e Limoni Sicilian Italian restaurant in Clerkenwell, central London, our menu features some of the best pasta dishes you’ll find in the capital.
Our popular pasta menu features some real delights. Alongside our famous spicy spaghetti with crabmeat, mushrooms & cherry tomato sauce, we offer a variety of other delicious pasta dishes. But do you know your types of pasta? Here’s a short lesson.
Bucatini, also known as perciatelli, is a thick spaghetti-like pasta with a hole running through the centre which holds lots of sauce, making it the perfect partner for Luce e Limoni’s luscious spiced Sicilian pork belly ragout. You might not know that Bucatini gets its name from buco, Italian for “a hole”.
And then there’s linguine, a long, thick pasta, elliptical in cross-section. It’s wider than spaghetti, but not as wide as futtuccine. Linguine is typically paired with seafood and in fact our black linguine gets its colour and subtle flavour of the sea from squid ink. That’s right, here in the heart of London, our Clerkenwell Sicilian Italian restaurant is your Chancery Lane destination for great linguine! We serve it with seared scallops & asparagus in a light shellfish sauce.
Rigatoni is a short, tubular pasta, larger than penne and with a ridged surface. It goes very nicely with our fried aubergines, tomato, basil & salted ricotta cheese.
Or how about trying a stuffed pasta? Our roast veal & mozzarella tortelloni with butter & sage, cherry tomato confit & truffle oil is a real treat!
Finally, fancy something like pasta that isn’t pasta? You’ll love Luce e Limoni’s potato gnocchi with basil pesto and cherry tomato.
