THE CHEF ANGELO ZARBO PROFILE
The interpretation
The, fruit of important experiences
Angel Zarbo’s personality as a chef has been greatly influenced by his travels abroad giving him a distinct Mediterranean imagination, French style, and German pragmatism. This 40-year-old chef, who is reserved, sincere and tenacious, proposes a linear kitchen in which only three ingredients (raw meat or fish and two seasonings) are enough to create something exquisite. Creativity is Zarbo’s strong point. He plays with contrasts between scents, tastes, and colors, in addition to making original pairings of land and sea. He has an uncanny ability to meet clients’ tastes and needs, making his menus something restaurant goers seek out.
The method
Like any good Sicilian, Zarbo is passionate about fish. He has mastered the preparation of any fish in such a variety of ways that the customer is never bored—in fact the customer is more likely surprised by the novelty of Zarbo’s art. No matter where Zarbo is in the world, he is never out of his element. He consistently shows us he knows how to incorporate whatever local offerings are available to create something new. Thus, local farmers’ markets are one of his favorite places to shop to ensure freshness and variety. Also, in the tradition of the great chefs, Zarbo makes sure everything in the restaurant is handmade. From the homemade pasta to the bread and desserts, Zarbo makes sure you are delighted with every aspect of your meal.
