For the first edition of Ischia Safari on Tour the wonderful location was chosen Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni in Bellagio on Lake Como. Here, last Saturday 6 April they met 22 chefs for a total of 13 Michelin stars to offer a gourmet experience to around 150 guests, who enjoyed an exclusive menu for a balanced entrance ticket (250 euros/person). From the aperitif to the desserts, among the enchanting gardens and the magnificent Royal Hall of the historic hotel property owned by the Bucher family, an exceptional gastronomic event took place in the true sense of the adjective.
