HI, I’m Allegra!
Thank you for stopping by
Food epitomes human life.
It is a melting pot of various elements, that, once blended together, shapes and generates newer and stronger forces. Seasons, cultures, beliefs, places, peoples, traditions - so much relies on food. Today, this incredible macrocosm still inspires the realms of art, design, writing, farming, science, and, of course, gastronomy.
My entire life revolves around food.
I’m a photographer, home-cook, writer, and host/producer of culinary gatherings and events. A tireless traveller, I’m also an antique hunter, and an enthusiast of all things aesthetically profound. Read more…

ATLAS
A travel diary and guide
A travel diary of all the places I’ve explored around the world. From the North Pole to the African continent, it is not only a photographic mood board, but also a bespoke collection of favourite addresses, hidden gems, and whereabouts that have stolen my heart – all in one place.
ARTISANS
The quintessence of a territory
Producers, restaurants, family businesses, these are all small existences that represent quintessential Italian craftsmanship. The cultural and gastronomic heritage of a country lies in such realities, which I love to unveil and share.
I have seen hunters, chefs, local producers, and the best wine and olive oil makers in the region sitting at those tables.
An entirely biodynamic winery located in Loreto Aprutino – an area devoted to wine and olive oil makers.
LIFE IN ANDROS
A Greek Mid Summer’s night dream
Greece has always been a place dear to me and a second home to my family, and today, it is also the abode of my life’s passions. A life by the sea, on the Greek island of Andros, where I run hospitality and gastronomic projects alongside with chefs, photographers, stylists, and bloggers from all over the globe.
