His dishes at Nori are a celebration of traditional Italian recipes with a modern twist, emphasizing fresh, local ingredients.

"Food is about bringing people together," he says, "and I want every dish to tell a story that connects people, just like my family meals did." His signature dishes include classic risottos and hand-made pasta that transport diners to the Italian countryside.
