First Nutella Cafe to Open in Chicago
Get ready, Chicago! Ferrero, the makers of Nutella® (The Original Hazelnut Spread®) will open their first owned and operated restaurant, the Nutella Café, at 151 North Michigan Avenue, Chicago, Illinois.
The permanent café is the first restaurant owned and operated by Ferrero. Menu items will include warm, grilled baguettes with Nutella, fresh-roasted hazelnut and blueberry granola with yogurt and Nutella, and Italian specialties like “Panzanella” fruit salad, and Gelato Affogato, a dollop of Fior di Latte topped with Nutella. There will also be a number of dishes available without the famous hazelnut spread, including a wide selection of savory dishes.
Officially, the doors open at 10 a.m. May 31, 2017. The first 400 visitors to the Nutella Café will receive one free select menu item – while supplies last, of course.
Nutella® was created in 1964 by Michele Ferrero, who based it on the recipe for giandujot developed in 1946 by his father, Pietro Ferrero – confectioner and founder of Ferrero – in Italy’s Piedmont area. The hazelnut spread with cocoa is available in approximately 160 countries worldwide.
