My name is
Massimo Bottura

I am an Italian chef born in Modena.

I grew up under the kitchen table at my grandmother Ancella’s knees. That is where appetite begins for me.
Inspiration comes from the world around me – from art, music, slow food and fast cars.
Expect the unexpected.

Never trust a skinny italian chef.

Cooking is
a call to act

In 2016, I founded the non-profit association Food for Soul to empower communities to fight against food waste in the interest of social inclusion and individual wellbeing.
