UMBERTO GORIZIA A STAR CHEF WITH A DOWN-TO-Earth attitude
Umberto Gorizia, who grew up in Apulia, Italy, was interested in cooking from a young age. In 1992, he began training as a chef. Umberto is a passionate chef and loves what he does. You can taste this not only in his dishes, but his professional positions in highly decorated establishments also prove it. Not only is he the best young chef of 2004, but he also earned the coveted Michelin Guide star at Ristorante II Colombaio. He was able to maintain this star continuously from 2007 to 2011. So it is not surprising that he was entrusted with the culinary direction of the G7 summit in 2015. In 2016, Umberto earned 15 points in the Gault&Millau for the renowned Schloss Elmau as chef de cuisine of the Fidelio restaurant. His direction was always clear: to get the best out of every product without losing sight of the goal of opening his own restaurant. The satisfaction of his guests is his highest priority. www.umbertogorizia.com
