Listening and reading is very important, that will make you not limit to yourself,” said Chef Anthony,” cooking is about loving, giving and sharing.” The period that Anthony stayed in Asia, Japan and Malaysia, before going back to Italy in 1997, allowed him to define his culinary personality with oriental elements. He soon got his first Michelin star in Ristorante Rossellinis of Hotel Palazzo Sasso at Ravello. The turning point of Anthony was in 2003, in which he opened his own restaurant creation, Il Pagliaccio at Rome and in 2006, the restaurant was awarded its first Micheline star and the second in 2009.
