History of our Chef Directors Giuseppe Lombardo and Nicola Vanacore come from a fine pedigree of Italian cuisine as both their fathers were chefs in Naples and they have grown up with the best of Neapolitan food It was, therefore, no surprise that they chose to train as chefs themselves in the prestigious Sorrento area After qualifying in 1994 they arrived together in England to work in a number of Italian restaurants in Lancashire

They have both set up homes with their respective families in the Worsley area and as such feel qualified to understand the requirements of local people for authentic Italian food Their experience is extensive and since 2009 Giuseppe and Nicola have both been chefs at the world famous San Carlo Group where more recently Giuseppe has been the leading chef in San Carlos Cicchetti Restaurant in Manchester.
