Presenting: Nonnas of the World

At Enoteca Maria we celebrate cultural diversity by serving cuisines from around the world, but we do it in the most uniquely authentic way possible. Real grandmothers from every country across the globe are invited and hired as chefs to cook the recipes handed down to them that they cook at home for their families, that make up the fabric of the culture they were born and raised in. We aspire to build cultural connections through the universal language of cooking, and one way we can do that besides eating it, is teaching it! We hold classes where aspiring chefs can get the opportunity to learn from the nonnas in the kitchen.

Culture is a resource worth preserving. After all a tree can’t grow and change without its roots. To uphold this mission we have pioneered a virtual book project that collects the recipes and stories of grandmothers from around the world called Nonnas of the World.
