CHEF
Roberto d’Anna
My name is Roberto, I’m an Italian chef with 15 years of experience. My passion for food started when I was very young with my Gramma and my uncle who had a little pizza shop in Sicily. I went to the Hospitality school and I started working in the kitchen when I was 15 y/o.
Since then my passion have grown whit my knowledge, I had a chance to work in different kind of restaurant, from small Trattoria to Michelin Star Restaurant.
My focus is on the freshness of the product so my menu will always change following the season.
