(ANSA) - ROME, AUGUST 20 - Young people with a desire for business, ability to innovate on solid training experiences, and the latency to open a new business not in the usual economic districts The story is that of the De Matteo brothers, in Maddaloni (Caserta). Daniele and Umberto, respectively 22 and 26 years old, «children and grandchildren of art» wanted to undertake the experience of bracists one year ago by opening a place with the support of funds from «Resto al Sud». An initiative that, given its success, they are honoring with great results: an opening that took place on 6 June last year. In the same day, 40 years earlier, it was the grandfather who started the first family butcher shop. The two brothers, with a great-grandfather cattle breeder, learned the secrets of the trade in the field. Daniele, after having worked in the butcher's shop "La Boutiquedelle carni" with his father, Pietro, among other experiences was also in Modena for some training courses for cooking meat. First butcher, then bracista at other structures, he managed to learn and deepen the profession of butcher and bracista. For a whole year the two brothers worked in the homeland of Chianina, in a notabraceria, one as a restaurant manager and the other as a bracista.

In the Maddaloni restaurant, today, Umberto takes care of the room and the wines, and is close to graduating as a sommelier. They brought this Tuscan culture to Maddaloni, offering meat and wine and cold cuts from a butcher's shop, and inventing a «DeMatteo cutting board». But the novelty is the exotic meats: zebra fillet, kangaroo, deer, ostrich, camel, wild boar. A different type of fillet every week. Chianina di Foiano dellaChiana, the strong point made in Italy. The embers are charcoal, elegant, without griddle, on sight and the brothers give advice on the choice and characteristics of the meats "in the showcase" in an elegant, bright room, with natural wood, background music, seats spaced inside and outside. You choose the meat, the cut and you watch the cooking. There is also a selection of national and international meats: Spanish, Finnish, Danish, American, German, Polish and Dutch.

National and international wines, from Campania but also Chilean, French and Spanish wines are then paired with the meat of the stessenationality. (HANDLE).
