New Chef at Grand Hyatt Hong Kong’s Grissini
Andrea Fraire is the new Chef de Cuisine for Grissini (pictured), one of the nine restaurants in the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong, 1 Harbour Road, Hong Kong.
Born in Vicoforte, Piedmont, Italy, Chef Andrea specializes in authentic Italian cuisine. Before he was even out of his teens, Chef Andrea was already to be found working in three-Michelin-star restaurants such as Thomas Keller’s French Laundry in San Francisco, and Juan Marie Arzak’s Arzak.
Returning to his native Italy, Chef Andrea then chose to study and work in the restaurants of the Piedmont, arguably the center of the artisan food and wine movement. After rounding off his experience in working with Chef Mattia Mana in Tuscany, Chef Andrea comes to Hong Kong ready to share his deep knowledge and passion for the justly celebrated tradition of fine Italian cuisine.
Being Grissini’s Chef de Cuisine, Chef Andrea is in charge of the restaurant’s menu planning and shares with guests his original cooking style. His signature dishes include Handmade Garganelli Pasta with Sautéed Mediterranean Red Prawns, Ligurian Zucchini and Saffron and Risotto with Seafood & Fresh Cherry Tomatoes.
