Spoleto - My Italian Kitchen is now open in East Orlando. It's the first U.S. location for Spoleto, which has more than 380 locations in Brazil, Mexico and Costa Rica. Two additional Orlando locations are scheduled to open later this year, one at the Florida Mall and another in Winter Park, said John Velasquez, president of Spoleto USA.

"The plan is to grow our brand throughout Orlando before expanding nationally through corporate and franchise stores," he said.

The Spoleto concept delivers the highest level of Italian Culinary in a fun and interactive way, where guests have the freedom to craft their personally inspired pasta, flatbreads, and salads with more than 30 different farm-fresh and house-prepared ingredients, herbs, dressings and oils, Velasquez said.

"The goal at Spoleto is to give our guests the Culinary Freedom to experiment with amazing Italian Culinary. We want them to be in control of this open kitchen, working with our chefs to craft their perfect meal," he said.
