This is the new home to Timothy Magee, the American ex chef at Le Nuvole, a small bistro in Suvereto. He returned to his beloved Tuscany after a fruitful six-months experience at Renè Redzepi’s Noma
An internship at Noma can change your life. Going back, after that, is difficult. This is what happened to talented Timothy Magee previously chef at Le Nuvole, a restaurant-bistro hosting only a few guests, nestled inside the medieval village of Suvereto, between Livorno and Grosseto. He closed his restaurant for little over six months and flew to Copenhagen to learn the secrets of the most acclaimed creative cuisine in the world. And after that, he turned the page.
