Rosa Matto’s family came from a southern region of Italy, called Campania, its cuisine, like no other, is celebrated in songs and poetry - it is full of imagination and inspiration. From this background Rosa emerged obsessed with seasonal produce and an unshakeable belief in the power of food to bring people together.
