Angelina Bakery Expands to Lenox Hill
Angelina Bakery, a cherished name in New York City known for its authentic Italian pastries and modern comfort foods, has officially opened its ninth location at 1100 Lexington Avenue in Lenox Hill. This new addition, which comes just after Memorial Day, marks the bakery's second spot on the Upper East Side, enhancing its footprint in Manhattan significantly.
At this new location, patrons can indulge in an exciting array of offerings designed to celebrate the rich flavors of Italy. Among the highlights is the introduction of mini pizzas that showcase artisan-inspired toppings. Some mouthwatering combinations include:
- - Potato, Rosemary, and Red Onion
- - Margherita
- - Mortadella and Burrata
- - Prosciutto and Arugula
- - Spicy Salami and Jalapeño
- - Roasted Porcini and Fennel Sausage
- - Capricciosa and Four Cheese
Leading the pizza program is Executive Pizza Chef Filippo Pagano, whose impressive background includes collaborations with renowned establishments such as Serafina Restaurant Group, Antica Pizzeria da Michele NYC, and Eataly. At Angelina, Pagano is bringing a unique concept called 'pizza contemporanea,' which is a delicate balance of traditional Italian flavors and modern culinary techniques. The pizzas feature a lighter, more digestible crust made from premium Italian flour, using a long fermentation process of 48 hours, which optimizes both flavor and texture, and baked at an impressive 900°F. The result is a sophisticated pizza that expertly blends bold flavors while remaining light and airy.
In addition to the gourmet pizzas, the new site introduces delightful gelato shake flavors just in time for the summer. These include:
- - Mango
- - Mixed Berries
- - Coffee
This new location is managed by experienced franchisees who operate an impressive portfolio of over 20 retail establishments across Manhattan, which includes popular brands like Serendipity and Rosa’s Pizza. Angelina Bakery joins the ranks as a notable part of this diverse culinary lineup.
The design of the new bakery reflects the brand's signature aesthetic—bright, open, and welcoming, embodying the essence of 'la dolce vita.' It strives to create an inviting space for both locals and out-of-town visitors alike, delivering not only delicious food but also a warm, personable atmosphere.
