As a child I wanted to be a pilot. But as I grew up I became fascinated with Mom's cooking. In 1973 she started the 'Ristorante Da Lidia' with dad. People came from far and wide to taste the dishes of the cucina Marchigiana. And I got to help... But I'm back. Together with my ravishing wife ceramist Maddalena Pantano and with Francesca and Gianmarco, the third generation, we present our new restaurant in Maasmechelen. We put our heart and soul into it and all the delights of the Marche. With us you can taste a piece of Italian heaven.
