Caffè Cosi - La trattoria de Bruno Caironi

Caffè Cosi — La Trattoria de Bruno Caironi is a trattoria in Troyes rooted in a long family history of hospitality that began with the Café du Centre in Villemoyenne and the Caironi traiteur business. The venue operates a wine bar, an Italian fine‑food deli and a takeaway service, offers weekly "menus surprises" and special menus for holidays, and has expanded with the concept boutique Enka and a temporary kiosk offering focaccias and panini, reinforcing a focus on high‑quality Italian products and accessible everyday pleasures. The restaurant occupies a warm, modern interior styled like a cosy loft within a gallery of art; guests can choose between two terraces — an inner courtyard or a pedestrian‑facing terrace opposite the Saint‑Nicolas church. Seating ranges from intimate indoor rooms to outdoor terrace dining. The cooking is Italo‑Mediterranean, focused on antipasti, fresh pasta, risottos and seasonal ingredients with straightforward, flavourful preparations inspired by southern Italian and Riviera influences, and the house features a curated selection of Italian wines to accompany the food. Bruno Caironi is the chef; he trained with Roger Vergé, Gaston Lenôtre and Alain Ducasse and his cooking was previously awarded a Michelin star while he led Le Grill in Monte‑Carlo, and he returned to his native Aube to create a convivial Italian table. Specialties include assorted antipasti (mortadella‑pistachio, salami‑fennel, vitello tonnato), Buffalo mozzarella and marinated crunchy vegetables, saltimbocca of veal with sage, linguine alle vongole, Carnaroli risotto with chanterelles and truffles, Sorbet Campari with citrus, tiramisu, affogato al caffè, and seasonal focaccias and panini (takeaway).
