Chef
“The kitchen is a space to be lived in,” according to Marco Dalla Bona, the chef of the restaurant, ‘La Stella d’Oro’. “It has become a place for interaction and exchange: a space where you get to know people and make friends. We no longer live in the era when the housewife would push guests out of the kitchen door impatiently waiting for steaming hot plates; now even the preparation time is a time to be shared. Some people limit themselves to watching, others want to learn, pick up tips, experiment, or use their cooking skills to lend a hand. Involvement is always effective”. This is the new frontier of cooking and eating in the same space. The very essence of modern conviviality is inviting the guest into the kitchen and enjoying the result of all the effort and passion together. To see the host or hostess in the role of chef makes the guests feel at ease, brings to life the sacred moment of
conviviality. Even more so if this is due to refined and high quality technology: “Aside from the taste of the food and the pleasure of being together, it is a means of emphasising the quality of the tools you have: good quality electrical appliances, a refrigeration system that allows for appropriate food conservation and proper wine storage, flames and hotplates that provide quality cooking and help to give each plate sublime flavours: and the proof that in a few minutes it is possible to make a good dish in your own home thanks to avant-garde technology,” concludes Dalla Bona. “This is why Matteo Gennari’s kitchens are so incredible: because they are the result of a great passion for food, careful selection of electrical appliances, and refined attention to individual details”.
