Italie sur Rance: an Italian table and delicatessen on the banks of the Rance

In Pleudihen-sur-Rance, Italie sur Rance brings together an Italian restaurant, delicatessen and caterer. Dineora designed a website in tones of wood, slate and lanterns, where the pizzas, pasta, burrata and ice cream sundaes are discovered as on a big table, before takeaway ordering or booking.

Restaurant, delicatessen and caterer

Italie sur Rance is located in Pleudihen-sur-Rance. The place introduces itself in three phrases from the first screen, “Restaurant • Épicerie fine • Traiteur”, and a slate spells out what you can do there: eat on site, take away, order from the caterer. People come for the Italian cooking: eggplant parmigiana with its salad, lasagna or cannelloni bolognese, pinsa romana, the dish of the day, and Italian boards such as the tasting of cured hams from Parma, San Daniele and with truffle.

The sweet side takes up a large place: lemon meringue tart, house tiramisu, artisanal Italian ice cream by the scoop, also to take away, ice cream sundaes such as the Tuttifrutti or the Mentecatto with mint and chocolate, and affogati, ice cream drowned the Italian way. The delicatessen offers taralli made with Senatore Cappelli wheat or a buffalo-milk burrata. For the glass: red, rosé and white wines, house wine, Aperol Spritz, limoncello cocktails, Americano, non-alcoholic drinks and digestifs, from grappa to amaretto.

The challenge: three trades in a single website

Italie sur Rance is at once a dining room where you sit down, a delicatessen where you shop and a caterer where you take away. The website had to fit these three faces together without blurring the message, and give the image of a warm place where Italian cooking is shared around a wooden table.

The menu is long: dishes, boards, desserts, ice creams and sundaes, delicatessen products, wines, spritzes and digestifs. It had to be made readable, section by section, while keeping the two main actions within reach at every moment: ordering takeaway and booking a table.

Wood, slate and three colors

The palette is that of a trattoria in the evening: dark wood, black slate, the golden light of lamps, and a green, white and red thread that underlines the headings. The first screen shows a stone facade, a window filled with bottles and a terrace under a navy blue parasol, above a rectangular pizza covered with cured meats, an orange plate of grilled vegetables, arugula and radicchio, a glass of white wine and a crate of tomatoes marked “Cuisine italienne”.

The logo, a sailboat whose sail combines black and white stripes with the three Italian colors, hangs like a wooden sign. The headings are set in a typeface drawn from the letters of the logo, slightly worn cream letters, as if hand-painted. The buttons are painted in the world of the place: Réservation on a green cartouche decorated with an olive branch, Commander on a red cartouche garnished with tomatoes, both underlined with the three colors.

A home page explored like a set table

The home page unfolds in large tableaux. The first sets the scene and its slates: “Des produits sincères, une cuisine italienne authentique”, “L’épicerie fine au cœur de la Rance”. Further down, the table comes closer, with two phrases written in chalk: “Le goût juste, les bons produits, l’accueil à l’italienne” and “Une équipe, une vraie exigence”.

A second tableau enters the dining room: wicker pendant lamps, yellow chairs, a counter lined with bottles and a display case, under the phrase “Des plats italiens généreux et authentiques”. Then come spaghetti under a shower of Parmesan, a burrata on its salad with croutons, a chocolate ice cream and a slate summing up “Burrata, pâtes fraîches, glaces artisanales”. The visit ends on “Une ambiance chaleureuse et authentique” and a gallery where the sailboat logo stands out against a blue wall.

An online menu for ordering takeaway

The ordering page opens under a medallion in which an Italian village stands out against the three colors, above the title “Menu & Commander”. The brown background is carved with large scrollwork and scattered with tomatoes, olives, nests of pasta and Parmesan. Each section sits in a cream cartouche crowned with tomatoes and basil, titled in raspberry red. A bar at the top of the screen leads straight to the dishes, boards, desserts, ice creams, affogati or the delicatessen.

Each dish appears with its image, its name, its price and often a short description: every ice cream sundae has its own drawing, from the Buoncostume to the Paciugo. The guest adds dishes to the cart, can pay online, then picks up the order at the restaurant.

Booking on a slate

The Réservation button opens a form set on a wood-framed slate, titled “Italie sur Rance” and “Votre table”, with a few lines of welcome. Around it, a stone wall, a burrata surrounded by cured ham, a glass of white wine and a wheel of Parmesan. The form fits on a single screen and asks for the full name, phone number, email, date, time, number of guests and a special request, in parchment-colored fields.

The request is sent with the same green button with the olive branch. On a phone, the slate becomes a column titled “Réservations”, under beams and a slate reading “Buona cucina, buona vita”, and the button becomes Réserver.

Designed for the phone as much as for the computer

On a phone, the Réserver and Commander buttons sit side by side at the top of the screen, above the sailboat sign. The name, the facade and the table stack vertically. On the ordering page, the cartouches fill the full width, a wooden menu button sits at the top right, and the cart bar, decorated with tomatoes, oil and Parmesan, stays fixed at the bottom of the screen.

A website prepared for local searches

The site answers the searches people make around Pleudihen-sur-Rance: an Italian restaurant or a pizzeria in the town, a pizza, the menu of a restaurant in the town, mortadella, or directly the name Italie sur Rance. The page title, its description, its texts and its structured data present the place, its cuisine and its menu with the same words.

A detailed presentation page complements the home page, and the full menu can be read as text on the ordering page. Nobody can promise a place on Google: the work consists of giving search engines accurate, structured and consistent information.

A website for an Italian restaurant, delicatessen and caterer in Pleudihen-sur-Rance

An Italian restaurant that also runs a delicatessen and a catering service has three shop windows to keep full online: the table (pizzas, pinsa romana, lasagne), the shelves (taralli, burrata) and the gelato counter with sundaes and affogati. A good Italian restaurant website shows all of it, lets guests book lunch and takes a takeaway order without a phone call. In Pleudihen-sur-Rance, halfway between Dinan and Saint-Malo, it serves locals and holidaymakers.

  • No agency invoice, no cut: a village trattoria should not pay what a web studio charges, and no commission nibbles at orders of burrata or tiramisu.
  • Ready in the time of a coffee: give the name of the place and the menu, the images and the ordering pages come together within minutes.
  • Dressed like the house: dark wood, slate and golden lamps, not a stock pizzeria theme.
  • The menu in your hands: dish of the day and gelato of the week change; the owner edits from a phone and the site follows at once.
  • Straight to the kitchen: bookings and orders land with the restaurateur, with no platform or agency in between.
  • From the Rance to the rest of the world: the same software runs restaurants in Lausanne, London, Rabat or Sydney, in several languages and the local currency, handy for visitors from abroad.

For an Italian restaurant, delicatessen or caterer in Brittany, Dineora delivers a site that looks like the dining room and an online menu that makes people hungry.

The result: Italy, on the Rance side

The Italie sur Rance website keeps the spirit of a trattoria: wood, slates written in chalk, generous dishes and a golden light. It shows the three faces of the place, restaurant, delicatessen and caterer, and leaves the two essential gestures at the top of every screen: booking and ordering. That is the principle of every website designed by Dineora: look like the restaurant, and lead without detour to its table.

The restaurant’s own site receives the bookings: they reach the restaurateur directly, with no platform in between, and Dineora takes no commission on them.
