LIVE AUCTION ITALIAN FEAST FOR EIGHT PREPARED BY CHEF LUCIANO CIBELLI IN YOUR HOME As a young boy in Milano, Chef Luciano Cibelli’s early life was infused with a passion and respect for cooking. After perfecting his family’s traditional Italian techniques, he set off to broaden his horizons in Köln, Germany at the prestigious La Vita restaurant. There, Luciano collaborated with chefs of both German and Indian descent. Together, they began to discuss the art of cooking; fusing three cultures to form new and exciting cuisines. Luciano expanded his knowledge with travels to Thailand, Spain, and the Caribbean eventually arriving in the United States. He worked as a head chef in New York’s Four Cats Italian restaurant and Nick and Maggie’s steakhouse. Luciano realized that cooking is not about mastering a specific style, but instead, it’s about “respecting” the integrity of the finest ingredients, finding correct combinations and ways to prepare them without compromising their intended flavor. Luciano helped launch San Diego’s prestigious Max Restaurant, developing a continental fusion style of cooking. He opened Mama’s Cucina Italiana at Pala Casino in April 2003, where he serves as Head Chef. His cuisine has made an indelible mark on the city’s restaurant scene, and is recognized as the BEST Italian food in San Diego. Two bottles of premium wine ensures your meal is set for your exclusive party of 8. Donated by Luciano Cibelli with thanks to Rosemarie Kubes.
