At Luca's Panzerotti. The Italian panzerotti originates from Puglia, in southern Italy. Golden, deep-fried little pockets of deliciousness, with various types of filling, the panzerotti somewhat resembles a giant Mexican empanada or Malaysian curry puff.

Previously, it’s impossible to find panzerotti in Malaysia, as Italian cuisine is very regional, and Malaysians usually identify Italian cuisine with only pizza and pasta.

But thanks to Penang’s rich, cosmopolitan make-up, we now have Gianluca De Biasi, a native son of Puglia, who now makes genuine, 100% authentic panzerotti right here in the heart of George Town.

De Biasi’s one-month-old shop (opened in Nov 2024), Luca's Panzerotti, is located at 1F, Carnarvon Street – a few steps away from the crazy-busy Teksen restaurant.

I was there for lunch yesterday, together with a couple of friends visiting from Singapore. We tried three types of panzerotti.

Luca's Panzerotti is a small mom-and-pop outfit, like those we always see in Italy. Here, Gianluca is assisted by his very friendly Penang-born wife, Phoebe. We really enjoyed our meal here.
