There were no ballots to win the title of best restaurant in the world at the 50 Best Restaurants 2016, otherwise the Osteria Francescana those too would have won, unlike the Democratic Party.
The meaning of the words of Matteo Renzi, who yesterday invited to Palazzo Chigi Massimo Bottura, Lara Gilmore, wife of the chef, and the Minister of Agriculture Maurizio Martina for a moment official recognition by the institutions, it was more or less this.
"It is a great pride, a result that Italy had never achieved", underlined Renzi.
Massimo Bottura gave a short speech of thanks to say that the prize is not so much for him and for the Osteria Francescana, a team of passionate young people who interpret Italian cuisine in a critical and not nostalgic way, breaking and reassembling tradition with the idea of taking it into the future, as well as for the whole of Italy.
"There is no better tourism than food and wine, many countries have understood this and many are investing".
According to the chef from Modena, Italy has never eaten so well, especially for the work that the chefs do in their restaurants.
“As small Renaissance shops we train, we are alongside peasants, farmers and fishermen who are the real Italian heroes because they provide us with raw materials that are unique in the world. There are guys from all over the world who want to come and learn with us, from Lima to Tokyo to New York. These guys will become ambassadors of our products ".
