Cecconi’s (Bicester Village)

18th December 2022 by Richard Bagnold Leave a Comment

New opening of Cecconi's chain in Bicester Village shopping outlet

Cecconi’s opened in London in 1978 to huge interest owing to its insanely high prices for luxury dining (think the rarest white truffle poured over several dishes).  It closed in 2004 and Enzo Cecconi’s name continued as an Italian food brand, bought up by Soho House in 2004. There are single branches in several of the world’s key cities and now this branch has taken over the site briefly occupied by The Wolseley Cafe, which sadly did not manage to go the distance here.  This spontaneous, drop in visit whilst shopping demonstrated genuinely good hospitality and some classic Italian dishes done well.  The carpaccio had good flavour and not smothered in too much oil as can very often be the case and even the sides of creamed spinach and zucchini fries were a pleasant surprise (good consistency on the creamed spinach and the zucchini fries were crisp and also not overloaded with hot oil).  There is also a pizza section on the other side of the restaurant which also looked tempting.  A good option to try in general if one is shopping at Bicester and this will undoubtedly serve the shoppers well.

About Me

meMy hobby-turned-passion began to evolve during my assignments to London where I was fortunate enough to be able to explore all the Michelin starred restaurants in my spare time and as a result, I gradually built up a catalogue of all these venues.
