Chef Andrea had a fantastic time doing this interview with Juice - Enogastronomia del futuro! Check it out!
We Play, you Pause 💆🏼♂️
Questo è il motto di Andrea Giuliani e del team del ristorante Pausa 🍴
Ma partiamo dall’inizio.
Andrea Giuliani, classe 1974 nato a Jesolo, dopo qualche esperienza in Italia, nel 2005 decide di partire alla volta della California 🇺🇸
È nel cuore della Silicon valley che, nel 2017, apre Pausa Bar & Cookery, di cui oggi è co-proprietario ed executive chef 👨🏼🍳
Pausa è un ristorante italiano che negli anni si è affermato nel cuore della Valley più famosa del mondo grazie al suo approccio autentico e alla produzione interna di quasi tutti i prodotti utilizzati 🍞🧀🍝
Con Andrea abbiamo parlato di ristorazione negli Stati Uniti e di cosa serve per aprire un ristorante come il suo, con 59 dipendenti e che nel 2022 ha servito oltre 82 mila coperti, partendo da zero 🚀
Pronti? Si parte!
