FAQ for Lunicco

Lunicco is an Italian fast-casual franchise, offering a turnkey concept.

Lunicco has evolved from a tested concept, with a controlled expansion strategy.

Lunicco adopts a simple, accessible, warm, and transparent tone.

Lunicco's mission is to introduce the hidden and unknown treasures of Italy through its culinary culture in France. Lunicco is not just a simple restaurant chain. It is a mission: to awaken curiosity, convey Italian passion, and provide a genuine experience to every customer. This mission translates into: • a selection of products directly from Italian artisans, • a constant requirement for quality and well-done work, • vibrant and authentic places inspired by real Italy, • teams trained to serve with care, generosity, and humanity. Lunicco does not just offer fast food. It provides a moment of Italy, simple, true, and shared.

Focaccia is a very popular Italian bread, widely known and spread outside of Italy. At Lunicco, we have chosen not to use it in order to focus on more niche regional Italian breads, less standardized and more closely linked to their territories of origin. This choice allows us to offer a different experience and to showcase another facet of Italian cuisine.

Ciabatta is today one of the most commonly used Italian breads in sandwiches internationally. Lunicco has deliberately chosen to distance itself from it to avoid a too-generic offering and to favor more authentic regional Italian breads, designed to enhance the recipes and provide a true taste uniqueness.

Piadina is an iconic product from certain regions of Italy, but it is also very widespread and often associated with standardized uses in fast food. At Lunicco, we preferred to highlight lesser-known regional breads to offer a culinary discovery and preserve a strong Italian identity, faithful to the spirit of local traditions.

Lunicco was built around the desire to showcase the culinary treasures of Italy's regions, often unknown outside their territories of origin. By favoring breads like puccia, tigella, panzerotto, or saltimbocca, the brand highlights the diversity and richness of Italian culture, while offering a more genuine, distinctive, and respectful experience of traditions.

Yes, positively. These regional breads have been selected for their texture, traditional use, and ability to highlight the ingredients and recipes. This choice allows for balanced, gourmet panini that are suitable for quick consumption, without compromising on taste or authenticity.

Lunicco is evolving its offering with care, respecting its DNA. Every novelty is examined through the lens of an essential criterion: to bring meaning, coherence, and real culinary value, rather than following a trend or a fad.
