Italian chef Alberto Faccani has been captivated by the culinary world since childhood, driven by a deep passion for creativity and tradition. A self-taught chef with a bold, expressive style, he has been recognised by Identità Golose as one of the “100 chefs who have changed Italian cuisine in the last 10 years.” Fusing classic roots with contemporary flair, his cuisine is a vibrant interplay of form, flavour and innovation. After honing his skills at Michelin-starred kitchens including La Frasca and Enoteca Pinchiorri, Alberto opened his own restaurant, Magnolia, at just 27 years old.
