Last year, the Davide Oldani Café opened in the new Piazza del Lusso at the Milan Malpensa Airport. He has been named Brand Ambassador for Milan EXPO 2015 and is the face on  the TV talent show “The Chef”. What’s the secret of success? “It’s a balance of contrasts, salt, sugar, hot, cold, soft, crunchy. Simple yet surprising, the kitchen has to be tasty and light”.

Experimenting and playing with contrasts to find the right balance, the unique taste for an original dining experience. Davide Oldani’s kitchen is simple and elegant. A luxury experience with high-end affordable menus.  The formal sophistication becomes haute cuisine experimentation. Flavor and food, is the focus of the next Universal Exposition in Milan. The chef has dedicated to Expo 2015 a saffron risotto, a reinterpretation of the Milanese dish of excellence: a lighter version of the classic saffron risotto. Out of curiosity: the spice chosen by the chef is a locale purchase, cultivated in a small agro food company in Varedo
