Idylio by Apreda welcomes you in the center of Rome, a few steps from the Pantheon, with a unique gastronomic experience: Mediterranean cuisine is intertwined with Asian suggestions and the art of spices.
THE chef
FRANCESCO APREDA
Francesco Apreda, a Neapolitan chef by birth and Roman by adoption, is at the helm of the starred restaurant Idylio by Apreda, inside The Pantheon Iconic Rome Hotel.
His cuisine is a harmonious balance between Mediterranean roots and oriental suggestions, the result of international experiences gained between Rome, London, Tokyo and Mumbai. Chef Apreda, starting from the discovery of new flavours, lays the foundations for a cuisine that embraces East and West with an original gastronomic vision, where Italian cuisine blends with the skilful use of spices, umami and oriental techniques.
His is a cultured and contemporary cuisine, which combines technical precision, creativity and cultural depth. Each dish tells of a journey through territories, aromas and contaminations.
The Idylio by Apreda menu is a journey that celebrates the Mediterranean through dishes in which the flavor comes directly from the ingredients – fish, vegetables and much more – enhanced by refined techniques, a profound knowledge of the raw materials and a skilful use of spices. A sensorial journey that combines balance and identity, guiding the guest in an authentically unique experience.
Spices in Conversation
Spices in Conversation is a series of events bringing together Chef Francesco Apreda’s cuisine and some of the most exciting talents in contemporary gastronomy and mixology.
An exclusive programme in which spices take centre stage. Chefs, bartenders and culinary creatives engage in a dialogue through flavours, techniques and creative visions, crafting distinctive experiences in the heart of Rome.
On 4 November at 7:30 pm, Idylio by Apreda will host a special dinner featuring Chefs Matteo Metullio and Davide De Pra of Harry’s Piccolo, a two-Michelin-starred restaurant.
For the occasion, the three chefs will present a culinary journey featuring their creations in turn, exploring the world of spices through refined combinations and individual interpretations.
From saffron to curry, coriander to chilli, each dish will reflect an exchange between their distinctive perspectives and culinary styles.
The dinner will be accompanied by a selection of Bellavista Franciacorta wines, thoughtfully paired with each course.
