Chef Gaetano Trovato

2 Michelin Stars 2025

Creative cooking

"As a chef, I have a clear idea of our land and what it can offer us. This is how I create tomorrow's cuisine, all while constantly focussing on the quality of the produce I use. I think Italy offers beautiful ingredients from north to south, and that we have a great diversity of produce which is coveted all over the world. Our mission is therefore to highlight Italy's flavours while respecting the produce and the quality. "
