CHEF ANDREA SARRI
STORYBOARD
ANDREA SARRI - IMPERIA - LIGURIA With over thirteen varieties of fish and produce from his family farm on the menu, Andrea Sarri has made a name for himself as one of Italy’s most accomplished chefs. He was awarded a Michelin star just one year after his namesake restaurant opened, thanks to his light, playful style of cooking.
CHEF ANDREA SARRI Finding it much more rewarding than schoolwork, Andrea turned cooking into a career and travelled all over Italy and France to gain experience in top restaurants. He finally returned home to Imperia to open his first restaurant, Agrodolce, in 2004, which is where he really began to develop as a chef. His knowledge and skill led him to becoming president of the Jeunes Restaurateurs d’Europe (JRE), an association which helps nurture and
create opportunities for talented young chefs across thirteen different countries. He retains the title to this day, making him a role model for chefs across Europe, a vital part of Italy’s contemporary food culture and a man who knows how to ensure it remains one of the best in the world. “In recent years, Italian cuisine has changed for the better. Those who haven’t noticed this and haven’t started to adapt their cooking have a real problem,’ he warns.”
Ten years after opening Agrodolce, Andrea left to open Ristorante Sarri with his wife Alessandra in the nearby fishing village Prino. As the restaurant was located on the coast, it made sense to make use of the incredibly fresh fish and seafood being landed daily a stone’s throw from the kitchen. The menu is changed depending on what the fishermen bring in every day, and there’s always over thirteen different species of seafood on the menu.
ANDREA SARRI His passion is obvious, and the welcoming, homely feel Ristorante Sarri has makes dining there one of the most rewarding gastronomic experiences Italy has to offer. When he’s not in the kitchen, you might spot him cycling, skiing or beetling around his beloved hometown of Imperia by motorbike, but his mind is always thinking about what he’ll be cooking next.
