In 1957, he moved to London and in 1981 he took over the Neal Street Restaurant in Covent Garden. After a few years, in 1991 he opened a deli, just next to the restaurant. In 1998 he opened his first Carluccio’s Caffe in Market Place.
He became famous when he first appeared on BBC 2, where he talked about Mediterranean food. After that appearance, he got a chance to write his first book, An Invitation to Italian Cooking. To this day he wrote thirteen books, that are translated in many languages and are published worldwide.
