DESCRIPTION OF VENUE: On the ground floor of the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, the Cafeteria, designed by Italian artist Rudolf Stingel, a leading exponent in the international contemporary art scene, is the ideal place for a pleasant break, at any time of day. The tables and chairs, also designed by Stingel, are covered with a special silver film. The surfaces of the walls and ceiling, perforated in a modular, backlit pattern, make for a welcoming and lively environment.
The cafeteria offers a full service, suitable for every need: from breakfast to light lunch to pre and after dinner. Starting at 7:30 pm, in fact, the cafeteria transforms into a Contemporary Trattoria and offers, along with a #SimpleCooking, a list of the best cocktails, from the most classic to the most contemporary.
THE COOK: Alessandro Mecca, born in 1984, began his career in the family restaurant, "Crocetta" in Turin, where he learned the basics of a chef's job and discovered a passion for traditional Italian cuisine. From his father, he learns a maniacal obsession for the research of raw materials, respect for work and interpersonal relationships with suppliers and employees. His resume includes experiences at Guido da Costigliole restaurant, Al Sorriso in Soriso and La Ciau del Tornavento in Treiso, up to experience at DOM in São Paulo with Alex Atala, one of the leading exponents of contemporary South American cuisine. He arrived at Spazio7 in September 2015, after three years at Estate di San Martino in Villanova d'Asti.
