Big Mamma Group is a team of Italians from all over the world, united by the same ambition: to take you on the ultimate authentic Italian trip via the country’s excellent cuisine and exceptional produce. After a ten-year-long crazy adventure, including being the first restaurant group to be awarded the B-Corp status in 2018 and opening acclaimed restaurants all over Europe – such as Pink Mamma in Paris, Bel Mondo in Madrid and most recently in Italy itself, with Gloria in Milan – the team have now set their sights on the second city of the UK… Birmingham!
Within Paradise, Chamberlain Square, in the heart of Birmingham, the squadra will bring La Bellezza, a delightful corner of Italian romance, filled with 100% homemade Italian dishes and incredible prodotti sourced directly from their 170 Italian artisans, such as juicy Puglian burrata from Salvatore Montrone and 22-month aged Parmigiano Reggiano DOP from Paolo Gennari. Filled with warmth and generosity, this 150-cover trattoria will be set in abundant dramatic scenery to live up to its namesake, complete with a whimsical 25-cover terrace.
Commenting on the opening, Co-Founders Victor Lugger and Tigrane Seydoux have shared: ‘Our main goal as restaurateurs is to bring to life the warmth and generosity of those little trattorias you find hidden throughout Italy. La Bellezza will be the epitome of this. We are hugely excited to be coming to Birmingham, not only to be part of its incredibly vibrant restaurant community but to also bring our superb Italian products, which we spent 3 years personally sourcing from small family-run artisans, to another major European city.’
La Bellezza is set to open at end of 2024 at Paradise, 2 Chamberlain Square. Further details to be announced in due course.
