Mozzarella and burrata, the same battle?
To unravel the mystery of the connection between mozzarella and burrata, let's delve into the story of these milk brothers cheeses. Burrata was born in the mind of a cheese maker from the Puglia region, who didn't want to waste yesterday's mozzarella. So, he decided to stuff it with cream and shredded mozzarella leftovers before closing it with a knot.
If it is a pride of the Italian region of Puglia, it is also thanks to the craftsmanship associated with it: the mozzarella balls are still stuffed by hand with this cream and shredded mozzarella duo. Traditionally, they are all made from buffalo milk. Oh yes, and burrata means "buttery" in Italian, even though it doesn't contain any butter, go figure.

Mozza enthusiasts, rejoice! Here's a true mozzarella bar!

The + music lover : the musical grocery store
Emilie, Emiliano and Lino had the wonderful idea of creating a quality Italian grocery store where you can listen to vinyl. Along the Saint-Martin canal, you can enjoy dishes on-site and most importantly, there are plenty of products to take away. The large 300g burrata is €7 and it's a marvel. Perfect for an aperitif ! Especially when we gladly pair it with a strong> Sicilian wines, from Northern Italy, from Naples, from Chianti in Tuscany... As for accompaniments, why not try the homemade focaccia with ham, cheese, and drizzled with oil.

The chicest choice: Le P'tit cou de la Girafe (and its big sister, La Robe de la girafe)
With a price of 19€, this is the most expensive burrata from our selection. But there's a good reason for that: in addition to being huge and for sharing, this burrata is... truffle-flavored! And the combination works marvelously. A delight for the taste buds, in a super cool setting (vintage bar and pastel-colored formica tables). The welcoming is just as great.

The most surprising: Maison Prunier
It's quite surprising to think that a house that makes caviar can serve a burrata to die for, but it's not just about the products, it's mostly about the recipe: a creamy burrata that acts as a jewel for the caviar. A taste explosion: the salty iodine subtly enhances the cream and these two ingredients complement each other perfectly. A must-try.

Special mention to the absolutely delicious panini, with perfectly flavored olive oil drizzle. You can taste the south of Italy: the burrata is excellent and reminds us of what's important for a burrata: the creaminess of the cream, the smoothness of the butter, and the flavor of a slice of cheese.
