Everyday Food I Love

From 4th to 8th September 2019, Cucina proudly invites Michelin-starred celebrity chef Ciro Scamardella to bring his Italian feasts to our stunning restaurant. Chef Ciro has been passionate about cooking since he was a child. When he was young, Ciro often helped out in his mother's kitchen. After graduating from Hotel Management School, Ciro started his career at one-Michelin-star restaurant Marennà as an apprentice, followed by two- Michelin-star restaurants Villa Crespi and La Terrazza di Lucullo, before joining Barcelona's three-Michelin-star restaurant La Sarte.

One foggy night in PJ, Hah! I remember this establishment very fondly and with good reason. I first debuted into the blogging scene back in May 2016, to the surprise and interest of many in the community. Who was this middle-aged scoundrel of a gentleman gallivanting about the food scene as if he owned the place Did I not, well it felt like I did ? A chance meeting with the beautiful and passionate Angeline Ong , who is the owner of this blog and of which I am an Associate Writer and Editor, led me into the fascinating world of Food Blogging. I visited a'Roma Dinings as my 18th foray in that same year, the older write-up of which is still accessible here . And like me and this blog, a'Roma Dinings has certainly matured well as a business and as an establishment offering authentic Italian fare and more. Step inside with me dear reader, and allow me to unfetter your inhibitions about this world famous cuisine.

My decision to undertake a cruise review on-board the  Costa Victoria , raised many an eyebrow. For one, I am not known to be the seafaring sort, and second, I have no idea how to swim.  Well, f**k that, this is 2017, so out the window goes that rubbish.  Despite this, I am an adventurer at heart and an offer to experience an Italian Cruise at sea isn't something that comes your way all the time, so I took it.
