Wedding menu / big celebrations

I specialize in first courses, with a focus on high-level fresh pasta and risotto, and I have extensive experience working with fish and meat dishes. One of the creations I’m most proud of is a true classic from Veneto: bigoli with slow-cooked duck ragù — a dish that always reminds me why I fell in love with cooking in the first place.
