This is a vegetarian reinterpretation of a very famous and loved dish of my territory which is beef in oil.
I believe that vegetables should be increasingly included in the menus of our restaurants to try to make people understand that vegetables can also be prepared in a tasty and particular way, and it will certainly be, in my opinion, the future of nutrition.
I would like the vegetable to become the protagonist with this dish as if it were a piece of meat.

Through this dish, I want to convey the value of wholeness. Every part of the albacore tuna is celebrated: the Wellington highlights its finest cut, while Roman-style tripe and liver pâté give dignity to parts that are often discarded. The carrot, also used in its entirety, reinforces a message of respect, culinary memory and the mindful transformation of ingredients.

This dish represents me and everything I wanted to believe in. I was born in Milan, moved to Ancona, mother Bolognese, father Milanese and Sicilian grandparents This could only lead to my personal split. This leads me to a singular deepening of every part of me, held together at the same time by feelings, passions and personal beliefs. So is my Signature Dish: the ingredients are enhanced individually but even more when combined thanks to the untied sauce.

As I see it, the future of cuisine is a return to substance, origins and family traditions, guided by a critical perspective that reinterprets and modernizes techniques while remaining faithful to the purity of the ingredients. This is why I chose to present my Po Delta: a dish in which Comacchio eel meets the corn, garlic and Abate pear that characterize the Ferrara countryside. A land with a strong identity, interpreted through a contemporary lens. A future deeply rooted in the past.

The recipe I propose represents my path: past, present and future.The eel is the most convivial ingredient of my homeland, cooked by a grandmother who thanks to it was able to gather everyone around a table. present in my Sardinia, worked and structured manages to give new variations. The bittersweet represents my present, the combinations, the olfactory references and above all intrigue with the taste, are the pillars of my current cuisine.

I believe the future of cuisine lies not in doing more, but in better understanding what we already have. In this dish, the whole duck is celebrated, with each part transformed into a different expression. The fermented rhubarb conveys the value of time, while fire and smoke speak of memory and instinct. It is a portrait of the chef I am today and the chef I want to become: mindful, responsible and guided by a search for meaning as much as flavor.

I rapresented violence against woman. Living or cohabiting with someone who exhibits aggressive attitudes and feeling without a way of escape.
Also walk alone, sometimes, could be scare.
During COVID-19 requests for help incresed by 119% and the cage tht I rapresented makes me think of them. Trapped at home.

Through a reciprocal Surf & Turf, grey mullet, a humble fish, is enhanced by leche de tigre and a crunchy polenta crust, paired with the rustic intensity of cacciatora sauce. In the side dish bold carpaccio meets the savory freshness of mullet bottarga sauce. The plating setup is crafted in 3D from recycled materials. Moving from the sea to the lake, the entire concept aims to raise awareness about sea pollution through the powerful medium of cuisine at my disposal and describes my own identity.

Growing up in the province of Bergamo with my grandmothers, who were born and raised during the war, they always had the philosophy ‘ the butcher throws nothing away of an animal’. A thought that made me reflect on how many different ways there are to make full use of all that a raw material can offer us. This is why I chose to use a rabbit in its entirety and develop the dish starting with the use of a few kilos of carrots, thus managing to have no waste.

The First Step tells the story of a personal return. After years spent moving between kitchens, countries and experiences, I realized that growth does not always come from going further, but sometimes from stopping and rebuilding. Through the five fundamental tastes, this dish expresses comfort, tension, transformation, maturity and balance. It is a tribute to my territory, my identity and the foundations of the chef I want to become.

My dish showcases the biodiversity of Alta Langa using every part of the lamb, emphasizing sustainability and respect. Combining tradition and innovation, it draws inspiration from historical local recipes. This dish reflects a deep connection with the land, honoring the region's culinary heritage and presenting it in a modern, creative way.

Synergía is an edible representation of the true essence of a human being: HEART, LIVER and BRAIN, emotion, tenacity and intellect.

It is a visceral dish in which the intimacy of offal brings land and sea together, merging with the inventiveness of the human mind. Served in a replica of the Liver of Piacenza, Synergía pays tribute to the ritual and sacred nature of food while looking towards a bright and radiant future.

It is a signature dish guided not by trends or market forces, but by identity, creativity and passion.
