Italian Delights in St Albans

Have you ever wished you could find a fantastic Italian restaurant that wasn't part of a restaurant chain?  With fresh food and an enthusiastic chef?  Look no further as at Per Tutti in St Albans, Hertfordshire, the food is fresh and delicious, and, of course, the decor is top notch!


Just a short stroll down Holywell Hill, before St Albans Cathedral, Per Tutti is one of a kind.  I was lucky enough to be asked to design the restaurant, which used to be an Indian and needed a huge renovation.  

The unusual shape of the traditional building set a few challenges, but it also helped to create interesting spaces for creativity...

A wine display blackboard has proved very popular, and a little nook creates a great place for a wine rack...

Love the panelling installation and the original brick walls which were discovered under many layers of false panels and decorating over many previous years...

Some unusual chairs were added (just about visible around the round table on the right)...

And some wire chairs at the table with the best view.  This beautiful light fitting (and another one installed which is not visible here) is made from recycled cardboard...

If you fancy dreaming of Italy while you eat, then this stunning wall mural of Venice will help you drift away...

 The zinc topped table was a great find...
