From the dough to the plate
Four gestures, and nothing more
Fresh pasta forgives nothing: it is worked the same day and cooked to the minute. It is more demanding than a packet, and that is exactly why we do it.
The kneading
Our pasta is kneaded on site, in our kitchen. Nothing arrives ready-made, nothing comes out of a freezer.
The cut of the day
Tagliatelle, gnocchi, spaghetti: the shapes are worked service by service, never weeks in advance.
Cooked to the minute
Every plate leaves to order. Fresh pasta cooks fast: it is the only way to serve it al dente.
The sauce, without excess
Pesto, tomato, truffle, cream: fresh produce and a short menu, so the pasta stays the subject.
Fatto in casa
The dough is made here, nowhere else
Place des Cardeurs, lively and car-free, inside or on the 90-seat terrace. Our fresh pasta comes out of a kitchen that sits a few metres from your table.
The shapes
Gnocchi deserve a paragraph of their own
The gnocco is probably the most demanding pasta on the menu: worked too much it turns rubbery, too little and it falls apart in the water. We make them on site, like everything else, and serve them with cream, mushrooms or tomato sauce, with parmesan shavings and fresh basil.
Alongside them, spaghetti and tagliatelle cover the rest of the menu: pesto, burrata and roasted courgettes, black truffle, meatballs. Here too, the menu stays deliberately short. We would rather offer fewer dishes made with fresh produce than a catalogue that could not hold its freshness.
Why our pasta
What sets our fresh pasta apart in Aix-en-Provence
No frozen pasta
Nothing frozen enters the kitchen. That has been the rule since we opened, and it takes no exceptions.
A deliberately short menu
Fewer dishes, but chosen and cared for at every service: that is what guarantees freshness.
Cooked to order
Every plate of fresh pasta is tossed to the minute and served al dente, never reheated.
In the heart of Aix-en-Provence
On Place des Cardeurs, right in the pedestrian centre, our pasta is served inside and on the 90-seat terrace.
A family trattoria
Opened in September 2021, our trattoria welcomes you monday to sunday, from 11h30-14h30 and from 18h00-23h00.
At our place
Fresh pasta for the big tables
Di Micheli is a family trattoria that opened in September 2021: five people in the dining room and the kitchen, a private room seating 28 and a 90-seat terrace on Place des Cardeurs. Our fresh pasta suits a dinner for two as well as a family or company meal.
For a large table, we build a tailor-made menu with you: antipasti to share, fresh pasta or a Neapolitan pizza, a homemade dessert. The rest of the time, a table is all you need: book in seconds, or give us a call.

A word from the trattoria
Di Micheli fresh pasta, Place des Cardeurs
At Di Micheli, the fresh pasta is kneaded and cooked on site, in our kitchen, from fresh produce. Our family trattoria, opened in September 2021, holds pasta to the same standard as its Neapolitan pizza: a short menu, chosen produce and no frozen pasta. You will find it at lunch and at dinner, on Place des Cardeurs, right in the heart of the pedestrian centre of Aix-en-Provence.
Fresh pasta is worked the same day and cooked to the minute: more demanding, but the only way to serve it al dente. Every plate leaves to order, tossed with its sauce — pesto, tomato, black truffle, burrata and roasted courgettes. Our team of five prepares and serves it with the same care, inside and on the terrace.
Fresh pasta also lends itself very well to group meals. With a private room seating up to 28 and a 90-seat terrace, Di Micheli hosts tables of friends, family meals and company dinners in Aix-en-Provence. Our tailor-made menus can bring together antipasti to share, fresh pasta and homemade desserts, a short walk from the historic centre.
Pasta is an immense regional heritage, and every shape tells a story. To explore its variations, browse pasta on Wikipedia, then come and find it on our plates.
At Di Micheli, the meal opens on the antipasti, continues with our fresh pasta or a Neapolitan pizza, and ends with a homemade tiramisu. At midday, enjoy the lunch menu.
