All confirmed the three stars of Italy. Eleven were and eleven are. From Norbert Niederkofler to Enrico Bartolini and Enrico Crippa, Nadia Santini, Mauro Uliassi, Massimo Bottura, the Cerea brothers, Heinz Beck, Massimiliano Alajmo, Annie Feolde and Niko Romito.
What satisfaction and what satisfaction to see that friend Niko Romito, chef director of the month of November, took the special award like Chef Mentor of 2021. And he deserves it all. As much as Norbert and Massimo the green star, a tribute to their sustainability in the kitchen and in the heart.
And then there is Davide Oldani, the friend and the director of our August issue. Here is the long-awaited red star, the second, well deserved. On the phone with Evelina, he told me that he was completely in the dark. For those who have followed the live stream, they were exceptional at organizing the surprise. From Petra Loreggian, the presenter who faked a technical misunderstanding to call the swimmer Federica Pellegrini and Davide Oldani on the stage and Marco Do, head of communication at Michelin Italia, also casually acting. When our chef realized that he was given the star … He was moved like a child on the first day of school. Without words. And it's hard to take David's words away! Bravo, our most sincere compliments and good Evelina and Camilla, and mother Maria Luigia.
And good at Matteo Metullio who, with the heart of a lion, left a restaurant where he already had two stars in South Tyrol, to take the reins of Harry's Piccolo in Trieste and conquer two, once again. "I'm happy because it was a choice I made for the family." IS Antonia Klugmann rejoices with him. «It is the first time in history that Trieste has had two Michelin stars. I'm happy for my city and I'm proud of Matteo . The guys too, many very young who deserved 26 new flaming stars, five in Tuscany, and then scattered throughout Italy. The only drawback: it was a pity that there was no woman. Girls, step forward!
