The Chef
Flavio Scaiola.
Born in Alba (CN), on 4 February 1964.
Prior to 1987, when he acquired
the Vecchio Tre Stelle, becoming its owner
and chef, Flavio Scaiola deepened
and enriched his store of experiences in
Switzerland and
on the Ligurian
Coast.
What he says about
himself
“I was born in Alba and
graduated from the hotel
school in Mondovì.
When I was twenty-three,
my passion for cooking led
me to take over what is now
the Vecchio Tre Stelle, which
was a country trattoria at
the time.
Today, it is an elegant
restaurant and hotel with a
national and international
clientele.”
Specialities

di fiume spadellati all’aceto di champagne.
