Chef Marcello Spadone
LA BANDIERA
1 MICHELIN STAR
CIVITELLA CASANOVA
ABRUZZO, ITALY
 | Master Chef Marcello Spadone is a contemporary Mediterranean chef who ties his Michelin-starred La Bandiera (est. 1977) menu to the traditions of Italy's central Abruzzo region. Many of his ingredients are sourced from seaside microclimates, and his recipes typically include fragrant herbs, citruses, berries, nuts, fresh-picked vegetables, artisanal vinegar, oils, and local pork, lamb or cod. Class participants have enjoyed his sensibility for "intelligent food" - a term he uses to describe simple and affordable dishes that utilize the most flavorful seasonal ingredients. |
