Definition: 1. (Italian) Baby  2. (Idahoan) A flaky, crispy, warm food pocket filled with delicious ingredients.
Origin: Bob and Mañuca Pickett and their children came to Idaho from Argentina in 1977. Not long after the move, La Pizzeria was opened on Main Street in Rigby, Idaho, where the idea for a flaky, crispy, warm food pocket was born. The Picketts named their invention the Bambino. It was an instant success! Generations have been raised enjoying Bambinos.
The Bambino eventually grew up and demanded a home of its own. Thanks to the efforts of Ryan, the "bambino" of the family, Pickett's Bambino was founded to better meet the public demand for this delicacy. The Pickett family invites you to try a Bambino. You'll soon find out why people can't stop talking about this crispy, cheesy, delight.
