Chef

Pasquale Torrente
Chef

Pasquale Torrente was born in Cetara, a quaint village on the Amalfi Coast. Il Convento - the family trattoria opened in 1969 by the parents in a seventeenth-century cloister - is considered one of the best trattorias in Italy and serves unforgettable spaghetti with "Colatura di Alici", Cetara's symbolic product. Pasquale didn't stop there and brought his cuisine all over Italy and around the world: from Rome to Istanbul to Dubai. Extremist and visionary, he defines himself as "homeless", but in his wanderings around the world, he always carries a bottle of "Colatura di Alici", the precious anchovies sauce.
