I&#8217;m originally from Monselice.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>CAN YOU TELL US YOUR STORY?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I graduated from the <\/span><b>hotel institute<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of Montagnana in 1992 and I started my training in Val Gardena, in Trentino. Later, I added to my experience in various places in Italy and abroad, such as Cortina d&#8217;Ampezzo and Austria. Finally, I returned to Abano Terme, settling in at the Tritone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nowadays, I continue to attend <\/span><b>refresher courses<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, such as those on vacuum and low-temperature cooking, or vegetable carving. I also read many <\/span><b>publications<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for catering professionals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9566 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/02-art.01-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/02-art.01-1.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/02-art.01-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/02-art.01-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/02-art.01-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/02-art.01-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/02-art.01-1-570x321.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>WHAT IS YOUR ROLE AND WHAT ARE YOUR MAIN TASKS?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am the chef, therefore <\/span><b>responsible for the kitchen<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. I aim to do a job worthy of the Triton and I set out to achieve this in various ways, for example by constantly seeking quality ingredients and selected zero-kilometre products, especially those from the Euganean Hills.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My responsibilities include order and supplier management, kitchen management, ingredient processing and much more. In short, I both <\/span><b>work by hand<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>manage a team of several people<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WORKING AT THE TRITONE?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;ve been working here since March <\/span><b>2021<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In that time I&#8217;ve understood that those who work here at the Tritone must feel it inside them, must make the hotel their own.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT YOUR JOB?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I love <\/span><b>creativity<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and being able to express it through cooking. For example, I find a lot of satisfaction in smoking salmon, which I do by hand, or in the spherification of certain foods (chilli, herbs, or turnips) that complement the dish but also offer a different experience to the guest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I like the <\/span><b>experimental<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> phase that precedes the creation of the dish. Also, because we work as a team; our team is very close-knit. Of course, disagreements can happen, but we resolve them because we all have the same goal: <\/span><b>client satisfaction<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This is why positive feedback from diners is important: it shows that they are happy and at the same time feeds our passion. We are always under pressure but this makes our work anything but boring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9575 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/03-art.01-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/03-art.01-3.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/03-art.01-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/03-art.01-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/03-art.01-3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/03-art.01-3-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.termetritone.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/03-art.01-3-570x321.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><b>AMONG YOUR DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES, WHAT ARE THE PARTICULAR DETAILS THAT MAKE THE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE SPECIAL?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Producing <\/span><b>traditional dishes but prepared in a modern style<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
