Awakening of the Senses

What is a Roman Pizza?

Forget everything you know! A revolution of lightness, crispiness, and sharing.
The ancestor of the Roman pizzaborn in Antiquity and reinvented for you.

48-Hour Fermentation

Our dough ferments slowly for 48 hours. This essential time develops deep aromas and exceptional digestibility. Production time is 10× longer than a classic pizza.

The Secret Mix

A unique blend of three flours: wheat for structure, rice for incredible lightness, and soy for that very special crunch. Less gluten, more taste and lightness.

Fewer Calories

More digestible, lighter, tastier. Roman Pizza is a gastronomic experience that respects your body. You leave feeling light, never heavy. Perfect to accompany your afterwork in Orléans.

Our Story

Between Rome & Orléans, a tradition reinvented

Welcome to a past that has taste.

Once upon a time, there was a forgotten specialty of ancient Rome: the Roman pizza ! Long before the Neapolitan pizza, Roman peasants prepared a tasty dough, shaped by hand. This ancestral recipe had a name: Pinsa, from the Latin pinsere, meaning "to stretch". Pinsa, from the Latin pinsere, meaning "to stretch".

And " Cenabum "? It was the name of Orléans under the Roman Empire. A historical nod, a cultural link between two worlds for your Italian restaurant.

Smiling welcome.
Excellent Pinsas, light and crispy, choice of original gourmet white pinsas and finally quite large.
The half version (more than half actually) with salad is really well proportioned. Sicilian wines by the glass very decent (tested white and red).

Very nice family lunch in this restaurant on our way back from vacation. The pizzas are generous and original (pumpkin, hazelnuts,...) and the staff is very kind! A good address!
