After 50 years: Pizzeria Mimmo & Santo closes your doors!

A piece of Italian history in Cologne-Nippes comes to an end: The pizzeria "Mimmo & Santo" closes on July 27th after over 50 years. This popular facility was not only known for its authentic Italian cuisine, but also for its large selection of gluten -free and vegan dishes. In particular, people with celiac disease appreciated the strict hygiene regulations and the careful preparation of gluten-free dishes that consist separately and consist of high-quality ingredients such as buckwheat and rice flour.

"Mimmo & Santo" had earned an excellent reputation in recent decades. With almost 1000 Google reviews and a high overall rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars, the pizzeria was often a popular meeting place for connoisseurs who also wanted to treat themselves to gluten-free pasta or pizza dough. Gluten -free beer was also served, which rounded off the offer. So far, the question of whether a successor is found for the restaurant remains unclear what many regular guests are worried.

The increasing demand for gluten -free dishes

The closure of the pizzeria meets a time when the demand for gluten -free nutritional opportunities is growing steadily. According to a study, 12 % of Germans now consume gluten -free products, although there is no medical necessity. This development has increased the market for gluten -free products in Germany between 2018 and 2023 by around 15 % per year, which gives rise to an interesting opportunity for restaurants to stand out from the competition.

However, the challenges are great: the costs for gluten -free ingredients are higher and the risk of cross -contamination can unsettle many chefs. A solid implementation of gluten -free offers therefore not only requires specific ingredients, but also corresponding training for the staff. A restaurant that successfully adapts to these needs can secure a competitive advantage.

The closure of "Mimmo & Santo" may be a loss for many, but at the same time the door opens for new possibilities and concepts that can continue to enrich the tastes of the city in the future.
