Alessio Brusadin

The Pantry of Alessio Brusadin

Who I Am

Hello Everyone!

My name is Alessio Brusadin from Pordenone, Friuli, professional chef and globetrotter . After the hotel school, I worked for some years in Pordenone and once completed the National service, I left for London.

There I worked in 5 star establishments such as the Hyde Park Hotel, The Halkin Hotel (under the guidance of Gualtiero Marchesi) and The Metropolitan Hotel, until I opened my own chain of Italian restaurants one of which, Grano in Kew Bridge, won the award for “Best Italian Restaurant of the Year” in 2000.

After fifteen years abroad, I returned home and settled in Caldaro, immersed in the beautiful hills of South Tyrol, where I opened with my partner Vito Leone the Restaurant Ritterhof . I than moved to the next valley where with the Corrà brothers I started this incredible adventure.

The return to Italy was a rediscovery of wonderful flavors and products. The aim is to source the best ingredients, capturing the essence of their flavours, add a bit of skills and creativity and, without adding any preservatives, make them available for the pleasure of you all.

In Avvenice you will find all the products with technical specifications, pictures and prices.

Buon appetito!

Press and Reviews

“This chef, Alessio Brusadin, is – in the context, anyway, of London – sui generis as well as being quite breathtakingly accomplished. He shuns fancy. Everything in every dish is to the point. He is both restrained and sumptuous. The invariable reaction to his creations is something along the lines of why hasn’t anyone done that before. He has dared to offer cooking which surpasses not only all that is to be found in the immediate environs but just about everything that calls itself Italian in London.”

The Times and The Sunday Times Archive SAT 17 JAN 1998, Page Times Magazine 61, Jonathan Meades at Tentazioni, Feeding time;R+R; Food & Drink, 8/10 - Jonathan Meades

"To allow the consumer to taste a genuine product that speaks in a candid manner of the territory, there is no more authentic guarantee for a gourmet than that coming from the experience of a chef who, starting from the knowledge of raw materials, is able to give life with extraordinary jam and sauce, the result of its gastronomic culture and the quality of raw materials."

"Today I have the honor and pleasure to introduce you to a great chef, Alessio Brusadin, and his thirty-year-old company born after years of work spent abroad in the kitchens of famous starred restaurants. He returned to Italy, in the beautiful Val di Non, to devote himself to the excellence of Made in Italy by becoming an agricultural producer, and in collaboration with the Corrà Brothers, Alessio Brusadin started producing his "pantry" with extraordinary fruit jams and meat sauce."
