A fascinating story that shows how two seemingly distant worlds, that of pastry and art, can merge in a surprising and perfect way. Pietro Recchia, our Pastry Chef, was born in Bari in 1987 and graduated from the Art Institute of Monopoli. His career path in the kitchen began almost by chance in 2005, but it was only in 2014 that he approached the world of pastry making, discovering that he had a greater affinity. From that moment, he realized the possibility of combining his passion for art with work, beginning a path of technical and stylistic deepening that led him to become, in 2021, pastry chef of our Michelin-starred Amistà Restaurant. So many of his desserts are inspired by paintings of famous artists, from Lucio Fontana to Picasso, via Kazmir Malevic and Andy Warhol strengthening even more the link between the two arts.
