The name means ‘creation of an artisan, pouring in heart and soul’. It was chosen to express thanks to his food producers, who grow his ingredients with care and effort. Preparations are no-nonsense, respecting the sanctity of domestic foodstuffs. Tokyo tomatoes are used to prepare sauces and mozzarella cheese from Chiba is paired with cured ham. Pastas express the joys of each season, such as pasta Genovese in summer and brown-mushroom pasta in autumn.
