Dining room and kitchen on the same level. And a training ground so as to make it possible for the former to rise to the level of the latter, which in Italy is of the highest standard.

Ten questions for a perfect dining room service

Donato Marzolla spent 16 years at Rossellinis, the restaurant inside Palazzo Avino, the luxury hotel in Ravello. Thanks to his work, in 2014 Identità Golose awarded him as maître of the year.
