Ep. 1873 Andrea Berti Takeda | Wine, Food & Travel With Marc Millon

Welcome to Episode 1873 on Italian Wine Podcast, Wine, Food & Travel With Marc Millon. Today, he will be interviewing Andrea Berti Takeda More about today’s guests KUKUNOCI is a tale about food, where Italian irreverent passion meets the dedicated discipline of Japan. Sourcing local produce and inspired by traditional recipes of Verona, our menu offers a unique contamination with Japanese ingredients and their traditional cooking techniques. We design food with narrative. Our story is about courage, creativity and omotenashi, a very distinctive service. KUKUNOCI is rooted in Verona and its surroundings. We are about nowness and here-ness. We believe the future is about reconnecting with heritage and ancient methods. We are constantly researching into Italian and Japanese traditional ways of processing food, unknown flavours and forgotten produce. KUKUNOCI started and operates as a private dining club offering a set menu of eight courses with or without wine pairing. Close to Piazza Bra, the flat offers a unique design in a quiet and comfortable location. The interiors are the perfect set for dinner, either for social gathering or professional meetings requiring that extra privacy. We are able to cater for most requests, thus keeping in mind the we do love food and are unable to change recipes for our guests. We will be more than happy to offer our best alternatives.
