Today is a huge, exciting day for our business as this morning, after months of hard work, we launch our second website – Great Italian Chefs.
Over the last seven months, we have travelled across Italy, from the canals of Venice to the beautiful island of Capri, talking to the country’s finest chefs in a bid to uncover their secrets and capture their recipes. To date, we’ve met thirty-one passionate and talented men and women who between them hold an incredible forty-five Michelin stars. This includes Francesco Sposito, Fabrizio Marino, Gaetano Trovato, Cristina Bowerman, Andrea Migliaccio, Salvatore Elefante, Daniele Usai, Andrea Sarri, Angelo Sabatelli, Enrico and Robert Cerea, Giancarlo Perbellini, Christian and Manuel Costardi, Rosanna Marziale, Marianna Vitale, Lorenzo Cogo, Emanuele Scarello, Alessandro Gavagna, Mauro Uliassi, Grazia Soncini, Andrea Berton, Roberto Petza, Teresa Buongiorno, Giorgio and Gian Pietro, Aurora Mazzucchelli, Marco Stabile, Gennaro Esposito, Igles Corelli, Norbert Niederkofler, Antonino Cannavacciuolo, Ernesto Iaccarino, Pino Cuttaia and Giuseppe di Iorio.
The food we discovered and tasted along the way has truly blown our minds. For too long Italian food has been misunderstood, leading to poor imitations and skewed views of its cuisine around the world. With Great Italian Chefs, we want to challenge people’s assumptions of what Italian food is all about, inspiring people to take a proper look at the recipes and dishes found throughout Italy. The Italians themselves are fiercely passionate about their culinary heritage, and with good reason – a large number of the world’s best dishes come from the cities, fields and shores of this deeply cultural, historic country.
