Hi Laura, I just found your page. This was a fun read. And by the way, your post about about 72 hours in Venice (or Florence) rather than 36, I totally agree! I'm a guide in Florence and wow, there are endless way to "go deeper". Non basta una vita, right?
Fantastic interview! Great timing: I am heading to Emilia-Romagna at the end of April, so you (and chef Massimo) have provided delicious food for thought. I am very excited. Thank you!
Fantastic interview-- what an electric personality. You and he really highlighted what struck me in Modena, which was way that industry and tradition mesh, creating this very modern, almost futuristic sensibility right alongside a this deep tradition of artigiano craftsmanship. And now Imola is on my list to visit!

Absolutely! One lifetime isn't enough to see and do everything in those cities.
Wow what an experience, and what a personality to meet and talk to. I would love to work at his restaurants just for the experience.
He is just so cool. Such fantastic writing, Laura.
Thanks! I was a bit nervous before the interview, but he’s so easy to talk to.
You did such a beautiful job! I would be nervous too, he’s such a legend. Glad he’s awesome irl!

Yes, definitely! Now I want to visit Ferrara too.
So cool to be able to interview him! One day, I'll go...
We had a great conversation! I consider myself very lucky.
