two ingredients that are compatible or contrasting, and the third that makes the difference: it amplifies or dampens the blend of flavors of the two components. it's no coincidence that 3 is considered the perfect number; it symbolizes creativity and is a source of imaginative energy. for example, cream and lemon curd, red shrimp and kiwi, amberjack, pink grapefruit, and white chocolate, etc. this is the secret of the cuisine of augusto valzelli, a 29-year-old native of brescia, who has been the youngest michelin-starred chef in europe for six years: he was just 23 when he received the award. today, the child prodigy is a complete culinary artist, a unique point of reference in brescia for the most inventive seafood cuisine, with his laboratory at via bezzecca 17 (campo di marte area), where only 25 people at a time have the privilege of sharing his world of unexpected flavors at nine tables. la porta antica, the name of the restaurant, is a restaurant, but it's actually the heart of augusto valzelli's experimentation. that's why the kitchen isn't open to view: it hides delicious secrets, the fruit of constant experimentation and invention; that's why every experience at la porta antica is new, surprising, and unforgettable. the menu stands out for its ever-evolving and inspiring nature. at the same time, it recognizes the importance of roots and traditional flavors. therefore, the chef has infused the menu with a selection of revisited classic dishes, expertly combining fresh, seasonal ingredients with an innovative vision. the expert and creative chef strives to surprise you every time, experimenting with new techniques, exploring new ingredients, and reinterpreting traditional recipes. he creates dishes that evoke emotions and stimulate the senses. the ever-evolving menu reflects the chef's influences and experiences, constantly seeking new inspiration through travel, exploration, and encounters with other culinary cultures. welcome to porta antica, where you can immerse yourself in an enchanting atmosphere that will envelop you. here, flavors meet and mingle, creating unique sensory experiences. our gastronomic itineraries will take you on extraordinary journeys, guiding you through a universe of surprising flavors and daring pairings. each dish, created by the talent of augusto valzelli, is carefully crafted to offer an experience that will satisfy your palate and touch your soul. it will be like immersing yourself in a sea of aromas, allowing yourself to be tempted by the vibrant colors of the dishes, a symphony of hues that blend on the table like brushstrokes in a masterful painting. our "essenza," "non mi basta," and "ci pensa augusto" itineraries will allow you to choose the one that best suits your curiosity, transporting you to a world of limitless culinary emotions. it's no coincidence that augusto valzelli describes the world of cooking as "fantastic," having discovered it at the parish church at age 13 thanks to a volunteer who entertained the young people by teaching them simple recipes. this spark ignited a burning flame in augusto, the son of a manager and a teacher. he later attended the "a. mantegna" hotel management school in his hometown, graduating as a chef in july 2009. his career began at trattoria l'artigliere with chef davide botta (member of jre, chic guide, and holder of a michelin star). valzelli quickly became the chef's right-hand man. in june 2013, he moved to imperia to work alongside andrea sarri (president of jre and holder of a michelin star) with the goal of specializing in seafood at the agrodolce restaurant. in november, at the end of the summer season, sarri handed over the restaurant and the reins to the very young augusto valzelli. and in november 2015, at just 23 years old, the greatest satisfaction arrived: the michelin guide awarded him 1 star: augusto valzelli became the youngest michelin-starred chef in europe. on april 27, 2017, his heart brought him back home and he opened his restaurant la porta antica in brescia. looking for an extraordinary gift for a special someone or for a special occasion? give the gift of an unforgettable experience at la porta antica restaurant, led by michelin-starred chef augusto valzelli. immersed in the magic of flavors and culinary sophistication, this caliber chef will amaze and delight even the most discerning palates with his creative and excellent cuisine. give your gift recipient the opportunity to experience an enchanting evening enhanced by the extraordinary dishes specially prepared by chef augusto valzelli.
