I got to know him as a writer, followed him as a TV and radio reporter, admired him as a natural wine fanatic. He’s also an “old” acquaintance of Identità Golose so I suppose that in the circumnavigation of the culinary world most people know him. His decision to become a chef and open his own restaurant, caused quite a lot of clamour, many were perplexed, some spoke ill of this. Two years later, Bruno Verjus is in better shape than ever and continues to lash the consciences of those who sit at his table with words and facts. Indeed it is very true that some loves will change your life. Where was your huge passion born? What I’m most interested in the kitchen are the people working there and those who contribute to their work, that is to say artisans. I’m fascinated by those who are capable to consecrate their lives to producing carrots or those who struggle to find mushrooms when in season. There’s something truly touching in all this, a concentrate of determination, culture and great courage.
Bruno Verjus, an insatiable passion embracing a wide range of territories and artisans of whom he tries to convey their truthful and lively products
Reflection and simplicity are the foundations of the food at Table in order to preserve the products’ liveliness and energy
The interior at Table is occupied by a long and sinuous counter which winds in the dining room and ends up in the open view kitchen
