ALFREDO ALBERGATORE

Originally from Naples, Alfredo Albergatore grew up in Florence. His parents have held a passion for arts, but mainly not food. However, growing up in Florence where the food is an art by itself, Alfredo began his journey of finding his own style by flourishing his mindset focusing on Food. At 14, he decided that he was old enough to take a step ahead to be a professional chef by working in small restaurant located in old city of Florence. That experience gave him the confidence and desire to take this passion to another level. That was when he got into in the famous B.buontalenti, a school of culinary art in Florence. After successfully graduating in 1991, he decided to travel to Berlin, Germany and worked at Sale Tabbachi as a commis. In 2003, Alfredo decided to take a different approach to improving his culinary skills and from 2003 to 2009 he travelled to different countries to learn different cooking techniques that could help him create his own cooking style. And in 2009, he got an offer to work in Dubai at Armani Café. A new and exciting experience to be in Dubai which lasted for 4 years. Being from Naples, Alfredo had his heart always directed to the Neapolitan Cuisine. This is when he happily accepted an offer from Margherita Pizzeria, which is an Italian restaurant that delivers authentic Neapolitan food. Throughout his years of exploring different cultures, traditions and food style, Alfredo Albergatore has always found a way of creating his own style of cooking. All what he achieved was never a satisfaction for him, he would still always explore new things to make him achieve what he always believed: “Eating is a necessity, but cooking is an art”.
