Paccheri alla Vittorio

Paccheri alla Vittorio is a rich and flavourful Italian dish of paccheri pasta and a red sauce based on three types of tomatoes. It was first created by chef Vittorio Cerea in his restaurant "Da Vittorio", located on the outskirts of Bergamo. The story goes as follows: during their trip to Disneyland in Orlando, chef Vittorio and his wife went to one of the in-park Italian restaurants and were served a tagliatelle dish creamed at the table.


Impressed by this concept and upon his return to Bergamo, chef Vittorio proposed his take on the recipe, with paccheri as a pasta of choice and a sauce made with three different types of tomatoes (San Marzano, datterini di Pachino, and oxheart). As in the American restaurant, the sauce would be completed and mixed with paccheri at the table, all in front of the guests.


Paccheri alla Vittorio soon became a hallmark of "Da Vitorrio" and still is one of the (now 3-star Michelin) restaurant's favorite and most recognizable dishes.
