The Hotel Cipriani, A Belmond Hotel is proud to announce the return to Italy of chef VaniaGhedini, who, after many years of experience with the Alajmo brothers at the Sesamo restaurant in Marrakesh, will take on the role of Head chef of Oro, restaurant with a Michelin star at interior of the iconic Venetian Hotel, working under the visionary creative direction of the celebrated chef Massimo Bottura.
Vania, born in 1987 in Ferrara, will relaunch Oro for the 2024 season, we read in a note from the famous Venetian hotel, proposing exciting new menus that will enhance the typical products of the lagoon and beyond. Chefs Vania Ghedini and Massimo Bottura will work together to create a culinary proposal where creativity and international influences will mix with the contradictions of Venetian cuisine. "My cuisine will be in continuity - specifies chef Ghedini - with the culinary practices of the great masters who transmitted to me the value of this art and the importance of culture and knowledge.
We will start from these foundations, from the places where I have lived in the last years, from Venice and the heritage of its lagoon and we will create authentic and distinctive dishes. These are the values on which we will build the precious experience of ORO ... now!""The Hotel Cipriani is the perfect film set and, since its opening 66 years ago, is a timeless symbol of Italian luxury and elegance. It is a journey in constant evolution, which over the years has combined the class of the art of service with an exceptional food and wine offer. The Oro restaurant, with a suggestive view of the lagoon, is the embodiment of this journey and Vania and I are thrilled to be part of this last chapter" comments Massimo Bottura. "Massimo Bottura's creative vision together with Vania Ghedini's passion for cooking will ensure that Oro establishes itself as a metagastronomic place in Venice and around the world. I thank them both for taking on this challenge and wish them all the best,” adds Christian Boyens, Vice President & Divisional Leader SouthernEurope, Belmond.
