If you don't have the budget or enough days holiday to take to do a gastro tour of Italy this year, an upcoming event at Selfridges will do the job instead.
The newly-opened rooftop restaurant Alto by San Carlo is throwing one heck of a dinner in June where the chefs from five top Italian restaurants are popping up for just one night. All in all, there'll be seven Michelin-stars at the restaurant that night who have been gathered together by the Italian consortium Identità Golose.
Heading to London are:
- Alessandro Negrini and Fabio Pisani, Il Luogo di Aimo e Nadia, Milan – 2 Michelin stars
- Annie Féolde and Alessandro Della Tommasina, Enoteca Pinchiorri, Florence – 3 Michelin stars
- Cristina Bowerman, Glass Hostaria, Rome – 1 Michelin star
- Alfonso Caputo, La Taverna del Capitano in Massa Lubrense, Naples – 1 Michelin star
- Corrado Assenza, Caffè Sicilia in Noto, Siracusa – latest star of Netflix’s Chef’s Table
And the menu sounds suitably wonderful - there's risotto with mazzancolle prawns, veal nervetti & liquorice powder; rigatoni stuffed with artichokes alla romana, vignarola, bottarga & anchovy caviar and also snapper in lemon leaves & smoked provola with toasted raisins and double fiordilatte cream with Bronte pistachios.
