The Culinary theme for Melograno is derived from Chef Alberto’s region of Piemonte. In the world of Italian food the most sophisticated and flavorful cuisine comes from Northern Italy. Piemonte’s direct proximity to France throughout the centuries lent an elaborate approach to its cuisine accented by truffles and complimented by the wines of the region. Chef Alberto’s use of ingredients and recipes that come from a Piemontese culture so far have yet to be completely translated to us here in California. Alberto’s interpretation of his Piemontese cuisine together with his classical Cucina Mediterranea is what sets this chef apart from others.
Chef Alberto Lazzarino has always been attracted to the Melograno (aka pomegranate). The beneficial health properties, symbolism in history, rich ruby-garnet color which is indelible, sweet and sour flavor and appearance makes the pomegranate a very special and unique gift from “Mother Earth.” Chef Alberto delights in presenting his signature dishes that incorporate the Melograno fruit. That is why he embraced Melograno as the name and decided that it would be the perfect icon to represent his cuisine, atmosphere and décor.
Wine Collector's Night On Thursday evenings, Melograno will feature “Wine Collector’s Night,” an event dedicated to everyone who has been saving "that special bottle" for the right moment. Each week focuses on a specific grape varietal or wine region and Chef Alberto will create specials which pair perfectly with the “Theme.” So, run to your cellar and bring that special bottle to Melograno. Chef Alberto will cook in honor of your wine! On Wine Collector’s Night there will be
no corkage fee.
