  1. Ciccino Corelli............. :wub:

    Chez Panisse become famous in US and in the world during the early 70ies, for its “alternative” attitude to cuisine of the period, creating a Californian style, although based on French cuisine. In the same period in Italy Marchesi, Santin at Antica Osteria del Ponte, Morini at San Domenico or Paracucchi, were trying to change Italian cuisine without leaving the stiffest French style. In that period restaurants in Italy were “trattorie” that prepared basically home food. In the States fast-food seemed to be the basis.

    Why Italy, starting in the same period to revolution food & restaurants, has never succeeded to jump in pole-position with its chefs in the International hall of fame of contemporary cuisine?

  2. Ciao Ciao Ciccino Corelli....... :wub:

    Italy is a country rich of extraordinary food products as well as of extraordinary creations that, being “daily” for us, we tend to under-estimate, positioning them at the lowest level of our food system. I’m thinking of pizza, pasta and ice-creams.

    I think that Italians should be aware of the great value of this gastronomic heritage while this consciousness seems to belong to foreigners . We need education and resources, as it is for all kind of long-term investments.

    In your opinion, what should we do to give to our gastronomic heritage the place it should deserve in the international media’s consideration?

    Why most of young, ambitious and creative chefs in the world have included siphon and jelly preparations, following Adria’s experiments and have never tried the challenge of a proper but innovative pasta dish?

  3. Now that someone else has had the nuts to say it first:

    I thought Battibecco was a huge waste of a tourist trap too. Underwhelming, although if it had been 20E a head instead of 100E I might have been satisfied. Even the culatello (preperation: slice it) was not particularly wonderful.

    Oh! Yeah.....Crazycow28 Super Star! :biggrin:

  4. Grazie!!!

  5. Ciao Ciccini riluttanti

    Tamburini is a old and historic deli shop in bologna, typical trap for tourists.

    Battibecco restaurant is even a trickier trap. Very expensive. They are awarded with a michelin star, totally unexplicable.

    If you are interested to discover a young chef, very talented, try il Cambio tel 051/328118.

    This is a real scoop!

    If you are driving a car and you like mediterranean creative cuisine don't miss Terre del Riso in Medicina (about 20/25km north of Bologna).
