Parparellu has become the first Maltese 'pasticceria' to open in London.
The High Commissioner of Malta, Joe Zammit Tabona, officially opened the café as guests were treated to a wide selection of mouth-watering savoury and sweet delicacies from the Parparellu menu, including 'pastizzi', 'qassatat', 'timpana' and 'kannoli'.
A large number of Maltese Londoners have since flocked to Parparellu on Fulham Palace Road to get a taste of home.
Owner Joseph Pace described the outlet as a place where tradition meets contemporary, taking to London the best of Maltese pastry.
