Indegno - la crescentina 2.0

I wanted to try it because I saw it on Google Maps when I came to eat pasta next door. I had the fried tortellini with cream cheese. The texture, the crunchiness, the meat inside were very good. While it wasn’t a meal, it was still a really nice snack. It’s definitely worth trying.

Very delicious street food. Hidden in a beautiful street. This fried Tortellini with a parmesan cream was absolutely tasty. Can only recommend it. Very fair prices.

I’ve wanted to try this for ages and finally got my chance at Spitalfields Market. There is so much choice and everything sounds tasty but I decided on the Fighissima and it did not disappoint. The dough was fresh and cooked right in front of me. The filling was so tasty. The combination of flavours was amazing. Also a big shout out to Lulu (unsure of spelling). She was amazing. So friendly. I’ll definitely be back to try more flavours.

We were here to try their excellent food, staff was really friendly, kind and polite, what we found extremely yummy was 50 special, a fried dough called crescentina filled with porchetta ham onion and cheese ( 6,50 euros it’s worth the money) what we didn’t like was fried tortellini. Street food absolutely recommended. We’ll be back next time if we go to Bologna.

Great little place. Tucked out of the way on a lovely little street with plenty of shops, bars and a lovely atmosphere. It is just a shop front, so nowhere to sit and eat, but for takeaway food that is delicious and filling, it was fantastic. I had two amazing vegetarian options (couldn't choose between them!). Would thoroughly recommend.

This is an underrated gem which I recommend for people visiting Bologna! I had this in my bookmarks as I wanted to try the crescentina, the local delicacy in the Emilia region of Italy. It was supposed to open at 630pm, I was there 5 minutes earlier the only staff there was setting up and preparing for dinner and I was the 1st in line. At about 630pm more and more people came but the lady told me she needed a little more time so eventually she got everything ready and started taking my order around 640pm. I looked at the menu and the first thing which looked like the signature had to be the La 50 special which I ordered. Then I asked the lady for recommendation and she said I could have a side so she recommended me the Fried Tortilini. Wow I don't eat a lot of Tortilini, and the idea of fried Tortilini definitely came as very interesting to me so I agreed. The fried tortilini was done faster so she served me that first with a topping of Parmasan cream. Oh my god, I didn't know how good it tasted! So interesting with a crispy variation and also with the parmasan really hits the spot. Its really a snack where you just keep popping the tortilinis into the mouth and within a short time you didn't even realized that the whole portion was gone. I didn't know what a crescentina is but I was quite impressed by the looks of it. Its like a piece of crispy flat bread with ingredients wrapped inside. I did taste the prochetta ham and the provolone cheese in the first bite, and some potato, and towards the end of it came the highlight which was the caramelised onions. The sweet flavours really enhanced the taste of the crescentina and was a good finale to the last bites of the crescentina. Very simple looking food but turned out to be a very good and afforable meal. This place has no tables and chairs so its purely a takeaway place. Not easy to find a spot to enjoy the food immediately after collecting it but I guess its better to eat them while they are hot. Must visit!

Delicious! Got the fried tortellini with Parmesan cheese sauce. There is no seating as it's just a stand

I ordered the La 50 special and it’s probably one of the best things I have ever eaten in my life. The staff is very polite and smiley. I highly recommend it!
