A Taste of
Di La Laura

Cari amici,

CHEF LAURA INVITES YOU INTO HER WORLD

Di La Laura is a restaurant that embodies the soul of its namesake—an intimate reflection of Italian elegance and understated luxury.

Born from cuore, a deep love for Italian cuisine, fine dining, and the quiet elegance of understated luxury, Di La Laura is a place where la dolce vita unfolds slowly, intimately, and with intention. It’s refined but never showy, intimate yet elevated—tucked away like a secret worth keeping. The kind of place one discovers through a knowing nod, where sapori linger and conversations stretch late into the evening.

It is a hidden gem, a trattoria segreta: a destination where every detail is considered and every plate tells a story. The setting is discreet, the atmosphere curated, but it’s the spirit of ospitalità, of genuine care, that brings warmth. That’s the essence of Di La Laura—thoughtful, generous, quietly unforgettable.

Every element, from the textures to the tone, expresses its values: authenticity, restraint, and modern tradizione. Whether it’s a leather-bound menu or the dim light that wraps guests like a whisper, every choice is deliberate.

This experience is not just about design—it’s about protecting a feeling. The feeling of being somewhere special. Somewhere only the lucky ones know about.

EXECUTIVE CHEF

At the heart of Di La Laura is Executive Chef Laura Panarese, whose culinary vision is guided by emotion, memory, and an unwavering dedication to craft. For Laura, cooking is more than a profession—it’s a language of love, rooted in her southern Italian heritage and shaped by a lifelong fascination with the way food brings people together.

Every dish she creates tells a story. It might be a whisper of her childhood in Puglia, where the table was always full and time moved more slowly, or a quiet tribute to the seasons, ingredients, and rituals that define Italian cooking at its most soulful. Her food is deeply personal—seasoned not only with technique, but with feeling.

Laura leads her kitchen with calm intensity and quiet precision. Her approach balances restraint with richness, letting flavours speak for themselves while creating moments that linger. She believes the most memorable meals aren’t always the most elaborate—they’re the most sincere.

With every plate, Chef Laura invites you into her world: intimate, generous, and full of intention.
