Andrea Gherardi
Hi! Iâm Andrea, and ever since I was a child, the aromasfrom my familyâs kitchen have drawn me in like a magnet. That simple âMmm, how good!â quickly turned into a true passionâcooking, experimenting, and, above all, making people happy through my dishes
As a person, I like to think of myself as curious (sometimes too much, or so they say!),empathetic,and detail-oriented. I find joy in the simple things: a sincere smile, a conversation over a glass of wine, or a sunset that makes you stop and say âwow.â I love conviviality, animals, being outdoors, and anything that sparks my creativity to craft something special for those around me.
As a chef, I see myself as a blend of tradition and innovation. I honor my grandmother Lolaâs recipes, yet I canât resist adding my personal touch. Every dish I create carries a secret ingredientâheartâbecause for me, cooking isnât just about food; itâs about storytelling, creating experiences, and making people feel at home, no matter where they are.
If thereâs one thing Iâve learned, itâs that cooking isnât just a passionâitâs a way to share emotions. And with a great dish, everything feels a little more beautiful!
