Tailoring
I do not make plates. I make experiences — built upon your character. A week of study for a dinner that dresses the soul.

The Manifesto
«A great tailor does not stitch a garment at once: first he knows the one who will wear it — their flaws, their virtues, their character. Only then does the cloth take shape.»
With cooking I do the same. Before designing a single plate I spend days listening to you — who you are, what you love, what moves you. Then, and only then, I build the dinner that only you could wear. No meat: starters and first courses where fish is the guiding thread — the East meeting the West, earth and sea interpreted upon your character.

Current season
Autumn — The cuisine of memory
October · Italy
Porcini mushroom
Autumn is the cuisine of memory. The porcini mushroom, born where no one sows it and dying where no one gathers it, is the unpredictable gift of the forest — like cooking itself, born from the encounter between what the earth offers and what man knows how to see. It is the season of chestnuts, of game, of grapes becoming wine. The Cook of Baghdad told that every dish is a bridge between what was and what will be: autumn proves it at every meal.

ITo dress the soul,
To dress the soul,
not just the palate
Every guest is a unique piece. The study begins with you — your character, your story — and translates into a menu that no one else in the world could wear with the same ease.
The philosophy
IIA week of study,
A week of study,
a bespoke dinner
Introspection, a diary of the experience, interpretation. To build a dinner takes at least seven days of study — and a quote born from the journey, not from a price list.
The journey
IIIThe theatre of gastronomy,
The theatre of gastronomy,
in your home
A chef at home who does more than cook: he interprets, he builds, he narrates. Your table becomes a stage and the dinner a work performed only once, for you.

Not the menus.
The portraits.
Every dinner is a unique and unrepeatable work. What remains is not the plate — it is the dedication: the phrase with which the Chef synthesised the character of the one who sat at the table. A gallery of literary portraits, anonymised out of respect.
«A man of few words and many silences. The menu was everything he had not known how to say.»

Voices from the guests
I had never eaten a plate that already felt mine. And yet it was the first time.
Seven days of anticipation, one evening that never finishes telling itself. The Chef did not cook: he translated.
He had asked me what colour I was. At the table I understood that he had guessed.
To satiate the soul and excite the palate.
