Gluten-free 5&5: chickpea torta inside schiacciata and French bread

Livorno's speciality

Gluten-free 5&5. In Livorno, we're the only ones who make it.

Hot torta di ceci (chickpea flatbread) inside schiacciata or pan francese (a soft white roll), as Livorno has always eaten it, with fried aubergines in oil if you like. Lots of pizzerias make it, but none of the others gluten-free.

Parties and birthdays

A party where no child is left watching.

At many parties the coeliac child brings a snack from home and watches the others eat the cake. Not here: the pizza and the cake are the same for everyone, gluten-free, lactose-free or vegan too. The children play freely, the grown-ups relax at the table. That's how Livorno has been celebrating for twenty years.

Families head home, friends arrive

After 10 pm

Families head home. Friends arrive.

A late-evening slot for getting together with friends, with a fixed-price menu. And if someone in the group is coeliac or vegan, they eat the same pizza as everyone else.

Our story

The first, and still here.

As a little girl, Debora made a promise to her cousin Elisa, a coeliac who always struggled to find something to eat: when she grew up she would create a world of gluten-free flavours. In 2006, together with her husband Claudino, the pizza chef, she left the newsagent's in via Costanza and opened the pizzeria in via Toscana, away from the centre, so that families could get there without any hassle.

  1. Since the 1940s

    Debora's dad runs his bar: it's from him that Debora learns the trade and the recipe for the Livornese ponce, which we still serve today.

  2. 2006

    All'Improvviso is born: the name comes from a joke made while crossing the Calambrone bridge, «all'improvviso ci verrà» ("it'll come to us all of a sudden"). Birthdays and gluten-free, dairy-free cooking from day one, with two separate ovens.

  3. 2012

    Second in the world and first in Italy in the Gluten-Free category at the World Pizza Championship in Rimini, with the Margherita for coeliacs, presented with the award by Beppe Bergomi.

  4. 2020

    The pastry shop is born, with a lab dedicated exclusively to gluten-free.

  5. Today

    Vegan cooking too, membership of the AIC Eating Out project, a certified lab, products in bars and shops, and training for staff at other venues together with the ASL (local health authority).
