Not everyone is capable of serving a soup wrapped in a spinach leaf, bathed in parmesan sauce and topped with a few saffron threads. But then again, Vittorio Fusari is an unusual chef who has little respect for the rigidity of rules. His workplace is a hybrid between a country house and a luxurious restaurant, not really even knowing himself whether to characterize his work as that of an innkeeper or a restaurateur. This duality is pointedly reflected in his cuisine, where different aspects of his personality come to life, depending on the dishes.
