The Chef<br />

Andrea Vannelli.<br />

Born in Turin, on 9<br />

September 1967. Andrea<br />

Vannelli has been working in <strong>the</strong><br />

G<strong>at</strong>to Nero since 1999, even though one<br />

could say he was practically born <strong>the</strong>re. In<br />

fact, <strong>the</strong> restaurant, founded by his<br />

grandf<strong>at</strong>her, was passed on to his f<strong>at</strong>her,<br />

and <strong>the</strong>n on to him. Three gener<strong>at</strong>ions <strong>of</strong><br />

cooks in a restaurant th<strong>at</strong> follows – with<br />

complete conviction – <strong>the</strong> p<strong>at</strong>h <strong>of</strong> quality.<br />

Wh<strong>at</strong> he says about himself<br />

“I learned how to cook from my dad, who<br />

passed on his passion for tradition to me.”<br />

A STROLL THROUGH<br />

Turin: <strong>the</strong> Parco del Valentino (Park <strong>of</strong><br />

Valentino), 550 thousand square metres <strong>of</strong><br />

green with cycling trails, walks, and <strong>at</strong>hletic<br />

opportunities. In summer, one can navig<strong>at</strong>e<br />

<strong>the</strong> River Po on board <strong>the</strong> steambo<strong>at</strong>s<br />

Valentino and Valentina, or with canoes<br />

rented from <strong>the</strong> various landing stages.<br />

Within <strong>the</strong> park lies <strong>the</strong> Borgo Medioevale<br />

(Medieval Village), <strong>the</strong> Promotrice delle Belle<br />

Arti (Promoter <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fine Arts), and <strong>the</strong><br />

Castello Valentino (Valentino Castle).<br />
