Cucina Tradizionale

My passion for cuisine started when I was a kid. I would spend hours observing my grandma and mom cooking and baking. I was attracted to the aroma of fried garlic, fresh vegetables and barbecue. I found them irresistible.

At the age of 8, I made my first tiramisu all by myself. Then, at 18, I fell in love with vegetarian cuisine. I have spent the last 20 years showing my Italian friends and family that a vegetarian meal can be as tasty as a non-vegetarian one. In 2013.

 I left my hometown, a small city located in the north of Italy, and relocated to Philly. In hindsight, it was a courageous move, I was already in my 40s. Today I am glad I made that choice. It completely changed my life.
