Slow
Dough.

Classic Roman pala and focaccia sandwiches, fermented slowly and made by the team behind Goodfellas.

01 — Lab notes

Only two things, done properly.

Slow Dough doesn't try to do everything. It makes classic Roman-style pizza on the pala, and focaccia sandwiches. That's the whole idea.

  • DOUGHFermentation runs through everything here, starting with the dough.
  • ITALYIngredients like sausage and porchetta are flown in from Italy or made in-house.
  • BREWEven the drinks are fermented. There's house kombucha.
  • FORMATMostly takeaway, with a few seats.

03 — The story

From the Goodfellas family.

Davide Stampini and Nicholas Compagnone came to Goa around 2014 to work at a fresh pasta factory. After a couple of years of missing the food from home, they opened Goodfellas in Benaulim. Slow Dough is their next chapter, next door in Sernabatim.

"It gives us a chance to have a feeling of 'home', even if home is 1,000 miles away."— Nicholas Compagnone, speaking about Goodfellas to Gomantak Times
