Chefs Giambattista Vinzoni and Alberico Nunziata with our Francesca Zanetti
I was invited to the exclusive presentation of the menu to be served on the 7th of January at the Golden Globes award ceremony, in Beverly Hills. Together with colleagues from press and television from all around the world, on the 14th of December, with little over a month to go, we got a preview of the menu and the dishes they will serve during the ceremony. With us, colleagues from Rai, with whom we interviewed the executive chef of the night, Italian Alberico Nunziata.

Out of all these events celebrating cinema – and television – the Golden Globes are the only ones to include a dinner during the ceremony. This is something quite remarkable as the menu, for 1300 guests, must be planned so the serving time can be flexible, as it must follow the live broadcast – the ceremony is broadcasted by 140 televisions all around the world.
The menu
Nunziata is a famous face among TV lovers. He participated in the first edition of MasterChef Italia, in 2011. Born in 1977 in San Gennaro Vesuviano (Naples), he was an air force non-commissioned officer from 1998 to 2010. After the experience on television he moved to the United States where he began his career as chef: from March 2016 he’s the executive chef at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles.
