Csaba dalla Zorza: «My Sunday lunch – Italian cuisine reinvented by Gordon Ramsay


Meaning what?
«The ideal would be to avoid the “grandmother’s table” effect, which today is too full and heavy, by alternating pieces from the trousseau or vintage pieces. At the same time, using objects already at home is very sustainable. Don’t buy too much and always start with what you have. I, who did not inherit large services, for example, have purchased many things in the markets: they have a special charm, as long as they are contextualized with something contemporary. An example: an important service will be combined with a simple napkin, perhaps in linen, but one that does not need to be ironed, so as not to cause too much fear in using it. And, again, a tablecloth in the trousseau will be more valued if the rest has a touch of modernity. And then dare: if you are lucky enough to own a set of silver cutlery, use it. Even every day. Adapt the colors to the season and above all have fun.”

In your book there is also a chapter dedicated to the choice and use of silver cutlery: why?
«Because silver goes easily in the dishwasher: this way it won’t be necessary to polish it. And because it immediately gives a great preciousness to the table. And it looks great with placemats. A very chic touch: have them personalized with your initials or a family monogram as they used to do in the past. Even today many companies offer this service. They will be a beautiful memory to pass down.”

How do you embellish the table if you don’t have crystals and silver?
«With small low vases filled with flowers, a few candles, a delightful placeholder. And then with so much care. The table, intended as furniture, becomes a dining table with the act of setting it up. This sequence of gestures can be very simple or finely complicated. For me it represents a daily tradition that involves gestures that relax me and prepare me to enjoy the fortune of being able not only to eat, but to share a meal with the people I love. Or with myself. The table has a decorative as well as practical function.”
