When the Amalfi Coast Lights Up Montreal: Chef Marco Cavaliere at Montréal en Lumière at Graziella.
Graziella Battista is the chef and co-owner, alongside Pierre Jullien, of Graziella restaurant in Montreal. With over 30 years of experience, she embodies contemporary Italian cuisine guided by respect for ingredients, seasons, and artisans. Striking a balance between tradition and modernity, her table is renowned for its elegance, generosity, and deep sense of hospitality. A committed entrepreneurial chef, she brings the richness of Italian culinary culture to the heart of Montreal’s gastronomic scene.
Marco Cavaliere is the chef of the renowned Da Ciccio Cielo Mare e Terra restaurant in Amalfi, an iconic table on the Amalfi Coast run by the Cavaliere family. Inheriting culinary expertise passed down through generations, he offers authentic Mediterranean cuisine, guided by seasonality and a deep respect for the land. When Marco Cavaliere crosses the Atlantic, his inspiration will become a dialogue between cultures, a suspended moment where the Mediterranean meets the creativity and openness of the local gastronomic scene.
For this unique evening, the team at Graziella has crafted a carefully curated menu, perfectly paired with the biodynamic wines of Musella, highlighting terroir, elegance, and authenticity, with commentary from Ms. Pasqua Di Bisceglie. Each dish becomes a dialogue between the land and the table, between the wines of Valpolicella and the cuisine, between Italy and Montreal.
