D’AMBROSI COMES TO CHELSEA

RESTAURANT QUALITY FOOD-TO-GO || LUXURY PICNICS || GOURMET HOME DELIVERIES

ACCLAIMED CHEF-PATRON BEHIND MUCH LOVED COTSWOLDS DELI EXPANDS INTO LONDON

Chef-Patron Andrew and Jesse D’Ambrosi, the American husband-and-wife duo behind the coveted Cotswolds delicatessen D’Ambrosi Fine Foods, Stow-on-the-Wold, have expanded their offering with a much-anticipated new site in the heart of London’s Chelsea. Located on the corner of Hollywood Road, the refined culinary concept serves nearby neighbourhoods with a gourmet home delivery service – perfect for no-mess-no-stress dinner parties, garden lunches and date nights – as well as restaurant quality picnics and meals-to-go.

Made-to-order on site with talented chef Andrew at the helm, the menu sees a medley of colourful prepared vegetables and flavoursome salads, delicious meats (if delivered, ready to pop in the oven), and tasty sweet treats. All dishes are freshly prepared each day utilising local, responsibly sourced, and sustainable ingredients that evolve with the seasons, with a range of gluten-free and vegan options also available.

Inspired by his travels and love for multi-cultural cuisines, D’Ambrosi marries diverse and unique flavours with classical French culinary techniques. His international repertoire influences dishes such as Char Siu lacquered pork belly and further signature dishes include Kale Caesar with parmesan, anchovy and toasted breadcrumbs; D’Ambrosi Rotisserie Chicken with jalapeno coriander sauce; D’Ambrosi Fried Chicken served with maple hot, buffalo or homemade BBQ sauce and delicious New England style Shrimp Rolls.

Andrew D’Ambrosi says,“We’re thrilled to open a second site and look forward to serving the local communities with our concept of gourmet food on-the-go – whether you’re picking up from in-store or ordering via a delivery platform. The idea is that you don’t have to be in the kitchen any longer than 20 minutes, so you can spend more time with your loved ones and be present when entertaining.”

Following an appearance on Bravo’s US television series Top Chef, Brooklyn-born Andrew earned international acclaim as one of the top ten finalists. Andrew then returned to New York and worked at esteemed restaurants such as Le Cirque and the Michelin-starred, Rouge Tomate. Prior to leaving New York, Andrew was the Executive Chef for a restaurant group and opened the much acclaimed and celebrated Bergen Hill (seafood) and Avant Garden (modern vegan).

Co-founder, interior designer and floral stylist, Jesse sits at the creative helm of the brand, overseeing the shop interiors and design elements. Locals can expect a homely feel with botanical artwork and copper pans lining the walls, some seating and shelves adorned with a curated selection gourmet snacks and scented candles handcrafted by Jesse.

Combining their talents and wealth of experience, Andrew and his wife Jesse have developed a unique gourmet destination, offering restaurant quality cuisine to take-away.
