ABOUT SERICA
Serica proposes a gastronomic journey along the silk road. The Italian gastronomic tradition will dialogue with the boundless Chinese culinary universe, thus inventing a new sense of taste that goes beyond geographical boundaries and contains the best that every land can give. The dishes proposed represent the union between the two cultures, in form, ingredients, and technique. Food seen as a cultural tool, which unites in diversity.
Liquids can be infused, reduced or extracted. In this way they take on many engaging roles at the table.
Liquid acts as this medium of communication, connection, exchange and transfer of the tangible and intangible elements
Co-creation
behind the design
During the design process, we co-created with Chef Nicola Bonora and Mauro Yap from Serica Restaurant, focusing on food and ritual design. Soffieria Villa supported us with their expertise in glassmaking techniques.
