EDITORIAL Ovidio Guaita, International Editor-in-Chief
O
nce upon a time there were trains and ships. Those who traveled from the nineteenth century until the sixties did not have much choice but had to have a lot of money and time. Furthermore, those who were fortunate enough to have one, usually had the other as well. Today, however, you cannot ignore the plane, and those very few people who are still afraid to get off the ground (it seems incredible, but I know at least a couple) are imprisoned between Europe and the Mediterranean. Air links determine the success of a destination. Perhaps someone still remembers the flow of Italians to Bali when in the nineties there was a direct link between Rome and Denpasar with Garuda. There the memory lingers on. Well, the fates and evolution of airlines can significantly affect the economy of entire regions. Many are those who will not have missed the golden bridges offered to Ryanair to reach some southern Italian destinations snubbed by Alitalia. By the way, regarding Alitalia and its endless lives - perpetually on the verge of bankruptcy, yet always saved and always on sale - maybe someone should decide to unplug. Then, perhaps, we would see the birth of a low-cost for short and medium range routes or, better still, a Rolls-Royce of the skies, flag-ship of Italian taste, spokesman of design and Italian cuisine, emblem of that lifestyle that the world envies.

DESIGN HOTEL | BADEN-BADEN
Roomers
N
Baden-Baden
othing is left to chance in the concept of hospitality dispensed by Roomers of Baden-Baden. In the enchanting German spa town, architect and designer Piero Lissoni has given shape to the quintessence of the conceptual hotel and design. Behind the façade which, with plays of shapes and colors, he refers back to avant-garde painting; guests immediately come into contact with spaces that superbly synthesize multi-functionality with intimacy. Right from the large entrance hall unusual perspectives, lively environments with a great scenographic effect, surprising touches of dÊcor that recall the history and traditions of the Black Forest all become apparent. Plays of light and forms of great intensity immediately catch the eye. The lobby bathrooms, for example, should not be missed. The style of welcoming is chic and informal. The overall atmosphere of Roomers is decidedly propitious in satisfying all needs starting from that of relaxation. Black granite envelops the serenity of the sensory experience offered by the spa overlooking Baden-Baden and the Black Forest. A sophisticated social space is the rooftop bar. In this play of shapes with which Piero Lissoni has given life to the multiple universes of Roomers, the gastronomic one, designed by the Moriki restaurant, takes on the strong gastronomic suggestions of modern PanAsian cuisine. Roomers Baden-Baden is an address for initiates able to appreciate the excellence of the service dispensed in environments that are masterpieces of interior design characterized by originality, elegance and functionality.

Paris
he Castille Paris-Starhotels collection cultivates an intimate environment, capable of making you feel immediately at your best. Located in the heart of Paris, the Castille affords a universe that amazes guests for its sophisticated hospitality. Bespoke furnishings. Captivating colors. Attention to details. Traits that posture a well-defined identity on the boutique hotel that comes from the balanced synthesis between harmonious classic charm and current needs. Moving around the warm and enveloping spaces of the Castille becomes a pleasure, amplified by careful and precise service. The interiors of the comfortable rooms and suites are characterized by either a contemporary style – like those of the Opera wing – or features that recall the France of the thirties – as found in those of the Rivoli wing. The Assaggio restaurant deserves special mention. It is a reference point for haute cuisine modeled on the gastronomic philosophy of starred Chef Ugo Alciati. The Alciati kitchen line, based on Piedmontese excellences and on the search for raw materials, is interpreted at the Castille by Executive Chef Pablo Sabariego. The elegant inner courtyard, with the Roman fountain and the azulejosstyle fresco dedicated to the conquest of the New World, fully complements the distinctive offer proposed by the Castille Paris-Starhotels collection.

Budapest
n impressive and magnificent building with architectural forms inspired by the Renaissance and the baroque typical of the late nineteenth century welcomes guests who choose the Corinthia Hotel Budapest. The atmosphere of the Grand Hotel - in its most mature fin de siècle realization - pervades the large common areas. The sumptuous staircase that dominates the lobby is a key opening for a hotel with a prestigious image such as the Corinthia, opened in 1896 as the Grand Hotel Royal. Moving around the hotel spaces is to thus immerse yourself in an elegant and international dimension. Spacious are the rooms and suites that occupy the various buildings of the complex lying along the Erzsebet boulevard. A broad interlude is afforded by the varied gastronomic offer proposed by the different restaurants. The intense flavors of Hungarian cuisine are added to the most classic international dishes at Brasserie & Atrium, whereas Asian cuisine is the proposal at Rickshaw. The history of the Grand Hotel extends into the Royal Spa. The Art Deco style pool is in perfect harmony with the rest of the building. Furthermore, the regenerating program finds its source in thermal waters and dispenses global well-being.

Hotel Imperial Vienna
nce you have entered the revolving door, a universe of elegance that combines different architectural styles slowly emerges.. This old residence, designed in 1863 for the Prince of Württemberg by the architect Arnold Zanetti, was later transformed into a hotel opened to guests on 28 April 1873. The sumptuous building today offers a kind of hospitality which, however, is necessary to discover in small doses. The majestic staircase ascending to the main floor is slowly revealed to the right of the reception. HalleNsalon, the historic imperial-style salon is the heart of the Imperial. Today is has been transformed into a lounge bar functioning as an exclusive meeting point for guests. The interior spaces unravel fascinating historical themes, uniting them with others that are warm and modern for perfect hospitality. The excellent service finds its culmination in the presence of the butler available for the guests of the different categories of suites - who personalizes the intense moments experienced at the Imperial. The atmosphere of the comfortable rooms and suites is played out with light colors, classic style, paintings, stuccos, carpets and classy furnishings. Opus, the starred restaurant, provides a unique experience with its 30’s-style décor. Original dishes are proposed by Chef Stefan Speiser who, making it understood with his intriguing amuse-bouche, masterfully evolves the concept of contemporary haute cuisine without neglecting attention to raw materials and Austrian flavors. Café Imperia, on the other hand, is a tribute to the most authentic Viennese tradition, starting with the desserts. Leafing through the evocative guestbook of the Imperial Hotel in Vienna, one travels through history and then magnificently enjoys the present.

Each suite has its own style and a unique character; some of them retain the historical heritage of the hotel, while others are renovated in a contemporary style, but all of them offer the highest standards of Moscow hospitality. The limits on the import of food products inspire an innovative gastronomy, with a cuisine based on local ingredients revisited in a modern way, where caviar and vodka cannot be missing.

The grandeur of the Metropol Hotel is also breathable in the immense breakfast room, cheered every morning by the sweet sound of a harp. This is one of the most interesting places in Moscow for its history and vicissitudes. Still today, it preserves the secrets of a not too distant past. Under its vaulted window in Art Nouveau style, many of the events that changed the face of Russia were decided here. The timeless elegance of the Metropol Hotel makes it the ideal destination for a stay full of history and culture, in a building full of charm and anecdotes. It is also linked to the various personalities who, over time, have chosen it as a second home. And one final point is that it is the setting of the famous novel A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towels.

Most of the walls, except for the interior ones, are made of green marble streaked with veins of white. The interior ones, on the other hand, have ceiling-to-floor windows, affording glorious views of the garden. The Chinzanso has 260 rooms and suites, all of which boast aristocratic furnishings, top-of-the-line amenities and all the modern technological

devices demanding travelers request. Most the rooms also feature ceilingto floor windows allowing for the same amazing garden views already mentioned. The gastronomic offering of the Chinzanso is indeed multifarious. Among its 9 restaurants guests will find a French bistro, one with Italian fare for those who are nostalgic for the Old Continent. For those who want to experience the local tradition we find Kinsui (for traditional kaiseki meals); Makushundo (with its retro appeal serves dishes cooked on Mount Fuji lava stone); Miyuki (serving contemporary Japanese cuisine). Finally, Mucha-An, a delightful mini-restaurant hidden in the large garden, serves mostly homemade noodles). To each his own. The Yu Spa is available for guest in need of pampering or searching for a bit of glamour. This facility performs over 40 types of treatments. Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo awaits you with all the time-honored charm and hospitality of Japan.

Even if ours is only a “taste� of Japan, we cannot miss the visit to the traditional Kyoto. The privileged means for this excursion is the Shinkansen, which furrowing the countryside at 300 km / h, allows us to visit this city during the day. Kyoto can also be visited on foot if you are good walkers. This way you can certainly enjoy more. The palaces, temples and gardens are scattered throughout the urban fabric, which is now contemporary. www.seejapan.co.uk.org 82

ven before opening the precious satin box, the nose is gratified by an intense scent of chocolate. After that, the appearance of the cake – square - amazes us until we decide to break the spell and cut a slice. At first it is not clear how to cut it (here the traditional triangular slice is not the right solution) but with aesthetic doubts dispelled and at the first taste, it is the taste of marzipan that captures our attention; then, little by little, chocolate enriches the tasting until we reach the layered wafer that binds the various ingredients. Even today, the cake, invented for the Emperor of Austria, Franz Joseph, on the occasion of the inaugural dinner of the hotel in 1873, surprises for its refined composition. The original version is now enriched with two variants: one raspberry and the other orange. The recipe is jealously guarded by the chefs of the Hotel Imperial in Vienna, now part of the Luxury Collection. You can order yours from their website. www.imperialtorte.com

M
astro Dolciere Pepe, this has been the dream of Alfonso Pepe since the early eighties, when he started working as a professional baker in some of the beautiful touristic destination all over the peninsula. Passion overpowers him, and he starts refining both his knowledge and techniques, attending schools such as Etoile and Cast Alimenti. His sole aim: to have his own business and create a brand of products to be sold carrying his name. The great ability in the art of making leavened products has made Alfonso Pepe’s laboratory a milestone in the local community and among the master bakers in Italy. An obligatory “pit stop” for whoever finds himself around Campania, especially on the Amalfi coast. All the fine products of nature and tradition around them are part of the pastry created by Alfonso. Take, for example, the one with limoncello or that with white figs. The secret to the perfect panettone is in the leavening, and Alfonso is certainly aware of that. We tried these in their various forms: traditional, limoncello, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white figs, apricots, citrus, coffee and others. A sensory experience that tastes of genuineness and inventiveness. www.pasticceria-pepe.it 90

on of art, first at Bauli and then at Star Massari - after having gained considerable experience in 1971 - he opened the Pasticceria Veneto in Brescia. Since then, thanks to his strict professional and personal discipline, he has won numerous national and international competitions becoming a pastry authority. A sweet for the winter season, a time, of course, when nature is not generous with gifts, the panetone generously gives us back, instead, fragrances along with new and old tastes. One bite into its softness and, right away, you can taste the Mediterranean candied fruit; the small “coins� of raisins cut through the rich buttery dough; the crispy sweetness of the crust enriched with sugar granules complete this harmonious mix of flavors. We have tried the very soft Traditional Panettone with three types of dough and the Pandoro Traditional, delicate and soft. Simple and simply good, without intrusions or digressions. Tradition elevated to the nth degree. www.iginiomassari.it
