Michelin star 2024 with the Zash Restaurant

The story of chef Giuseppe Raciti is very intense: at the age of 22 he was Chef de Partie of the Santin chef team (2 Michelin stars), 1 year later, he joined Massimo Mantarro team (2 Michelin stars) at Principe Cerami in Taormina. He masters with him, in many techniques, given his innate talent, and went abroad in order to broad his skills, experiences and knowledge in a more international level.
The great professionality and the obvious technical skills demonstrated in this role are rewarded in 2017 when he was awarded the title of '2016 Best New South Italy Chef Under 30'.
In 2019 the first Michelin star arrives and fills us with pride.
