JUN. JUL. 2019 XI and restaurant? The idea was fundamental from the outset, and we couldn’t ignore it: we always imagined Alfione like this: a restaurant, a delicatessen but first of all a butchery. ______________________________ BOX IN THE KITCHEN What to do have good cooking skills product choice knowing how to do the shopping What not to do never choose poor products cooking only for profit ______________________________ ABOUT GRAZIANO RACCHELLI After completing compulsory schools, he attended the catering school hotelier institute of Salsomaggiore Terme until his diploma. From there began the targeted journey of Graziano Racchelli, 58 years old, born in the province of Parma. His training took him to various kitchens in Italy and around the world, until he felt ready in 1985 to open his first restaurant, which he managed for 18 years. After this experience on his own, he has worked in various collaborations to start up new restaurants, draw up menus and provide advice in the catering sector. ______________________________ THE RECIPE Sautéed of veal kidney “A dish to which I am particularly attached for the great satisfaction it has given me is the sautéed kidney veal”. For 4 people: 600 grams of veal kidney; 1 bunch of finely chopped parsley; 2 cloves of garlic; the juice of half a lemon; 100 grams of butter; salt and pepper. Cooking time: about 5-6 minutes. Chop the kidney, which has been stripped of all its ligaments, previously soaked for some time in cold running water and then dried on a dry cloth, in thin slices less than 1 cm high. Stir in plenty of hot, frothy butter in which the two slightly crushed garlic cloves have been previously immersed. Leave to cook on high heat, for the indicated time. Then put it to a corner of the stove, sprinkle with the lemon juice, add the parsley and a little more raw butter. Season with salt and pepper, remove the pieces of garlic, throwing them away, and pour everything into a hot serving dish, with high sides. Sprinkle again with a little parsley and serve immediately. ______________________________ HOW ALFIONE MOVES ON THE NET “We don’t really do much social media work, just the basic essentials of being there. We have always maintained a low profile thinking about a slow and consolidated growth entrusted more to “word-of-mouth” than to an aggressive communication. TripAdvisor is not a gastronomic guide written by specialists and it does not represent the majority of the entire consumers, but it is still an indication of a trend of liking or not, given that favourable reviews are always pleasing, the negative ones help us to correct errors and understand the expectations that some have towards us. https://alfione.it/ AT PAGE 28 IN THE DINING ROOM Electronic cigarettes yes, electronic cigarettes no? At the table, what matters is respect for the taste The question is not a trivial one. The directive is not clear at all. Here’s how to proceed today if the customer decides to vape in your restaurant By Mauro Garofalo At the restaurant, can you vape? A few days before the summer opening - when between normal cigarettes and e-cigs customers who want to smoke will increase both outside and inside the premises - let’s look at the situation of the laws in this regard, but especially what guidelines are increasingly being adopted to be perceived as “winning” restaurants all-round. On the basis of the current legislation there is no prohibition in public places. The Fipe Committee in fact reports that: “At present, the national legislation allows the use of electronic cigarettes in enclosed premises (and therefore also in public establishments). The legislature - Art. 4, paragraph 5 sexies, legislative decree No. 104 of 12/09/2013, converted with amendments into Law no. 128/2013 – repealed the provision referred to in the second sentence of paragraph 10- bis of Art. 51, L. No. 3/2003, which extended the applicability of the provisions concerning the protection of the health of non-smokers - including those concerning the prohibition of smoking in enclosed spaces - also for products which are substitutes of the smoking products, such as electronic cigarettes.” That is, currently: “there is no prohibition Ex lege of using the electronic cigarette in enclosed spaces.” Along the same line, the Appeals Commission expressed its opinion to the Ministry of Employment, according to which “in the absence of a specific provisions of law, [it is believed] not applicable to electronic cigarettes, the smoking ban provided for by Art. 51 of Law no. 3/2003 to protect the health of non-smokers.”
