Fresh before your eyes
How your piadina is made
Every piadina is made fresh for you. By hand, on the hot plate, in just a few minutes. Our dough is purely vegan. And cleanliness is our top priority.
1
Rolling the piadina dough
Fresh dough is made from scratch every day and rolled out before your eyes. Vegan, with no preservatives.
2
Heating the dough, topped with mozzarella on request
The dough is baked crisp on the hot plate. If you want mozzarella, it goes on now so it melts evenly.
3
Cold cuts sliced fresh on the slicing machine.
Any cold cut you like is sliced wafer-thin to order. Parma ham, salami, coppa, bresaola, mortadella.
4
Generously filled
Tomatoes, rocket, aubergine, zucchini. All remaining ingredients go on fresh, in the order you choose.
5
Fresh into your hand
Folded, in a bag with our logo. Straight over the counter into your hand. Warm, fragrant, in just a few minutes. Ready for the first bite.

What is a piadina?
Loved for over 3,000 years. Today at our stand on the Marktplatz.
The piadina was invented as early as 1200 BC. A thin, unleavened flatbread from Italy's Romagna region, baked on a hot plate and filled in over a thousand ways. We set up our stand on Basel's Marktplatz for the first time in 2005. Since then we have stood in the same spot, Monday to Saturday. In sunshine, rain and snow.
Every supplier is chosen personally. Our meat is imported directly from Italy. Tomatoes and basil are cut fresh every morning. We clean and disinfect our machines and work surfaces daily. Our vegan dough is made to our own recipe.
Order whatever your heart desires at the stand. We will make it happen.

Freshly sliced
Freshly sliced, not from plastic packs
Our slicing machine has been at the stand since day one. Any cold cut you like is sliced wafer-thin to order, slice by slice, right in front of you. No pre-packaged cold cuts from the freezer.
Freshness & quality
Guaranteed fresh enjoyment
Quality starts with the supplier, not on the plate. We check every step up to the hot plate, so the last piadina is as good as the first.
Personally selected
Every supplier is carefully vetted. We stay in regular contact and check every delivery before it is used.
Organic & fair
We pay attention to organic farming and proper animal husbandry. Sustainability is essential to us. And you can taste it.
Fresh, vegan dough
Our dough is made fresh every day. It only goes on the hot plate once you order. Never pre-made, never reheated.
Hygiene
Whether handling ingredients or preparing your piadina, cleanliness comes first for us. You can count on that.

What our guests say
Real reviews from our guests, collected on TripAdvisor and Google.
Very tasty. The piadina was freshly made and the flavour was simply top class. The ingredients are high quality and perfectly combined.
Sometimes you search your whole life for love and find it unexpectedly in a piadina.
Super tasty piadina stand. Fresh ingredients, perfectly prepared, and you can tell they work with passion here. Very friendly service.
Even when it gets busy, you are served with speed, friendliness and charm. The filling is good, healthy, fresh and generous.
Very fine piadina, freshly made and really well seasoned. The dough was soft with a slightly crispy edge and the filling was juicy.
Almost every day on the Marktplatz in the heart of Basel. Perfect in nice weather. Really good piadina.
I have been getting my piadina here for years. Always delicious. A special touch: the mozzarella is gently melted.
Great spot for a quick bite on the Marktplatz. Perfect for a fast lunch in the city centre.
Forget every other piadina place in Basel. This is by far the best. Homemade dough, no ready-made flatbreads.
The meat of your choice is sliced wafer-thin, fresh to order. Quick and really very good.
The best piadina I have ever eaten. I can only recommend it. I keep coming back.
Affordable and so freshly made you can almost hear the wheat crack while the dough is kneaded.
