ROME: Italian chef Carlo Cracco will be venturing to Rome for the first time in his career as he opens a restaurant that will serve breakfast to dinner at the Corinthia Rome hotel which is set to open early next year.
This is also the first hotel in Italy for the Corinthia group.
“Although the restaurant will be in a hotel, it will be a space that is open to everyone. And it will not be just a restaurant. We want to do the same as we did at the Galleria in Milan offering a service that starts with breakfast in the morning and ends late in the evening,” Carlo Cracco said to La Repubblica.
He said that he felt it was the right time to improve the quality of the offering in Rome. Carlo Cracco said he was of the view that post-COVID, there are huge opportunities for Rome restaurants.
Carlo Cracco is an Italian chef famous for his flagship restaurant Ristorante Cracco in Milan in an iconic space inside the Galleria just off the Piazza Duomo. Carlo Cracco is also a very well established TV personality having been host of Masterchef Italy and more recently Amazon prime series called Dinner Club.
The hotel will be opening between the end of the year and the beginning of next year in the square that host’s the Italian parliament.
This is not the first collaboration with top chefs by the luxurious hotel chain which originated from Malta. In London, they have entrusted a restaurant to UK chef Tom Kerridge and recently they announced a pop-up at the Villa Corinthia in Malta where they welcomed Italian chef Francesco Mazzei for a pop-up from June to December 2023.
