“I think a chef, too, is an artist, who visualises and plates his dish just like an artist works on his painting,” says Maiano, who likes to listen to Italian music while showing his culinary skills in the kitchen.

“Sometimes, it is rock music of the ’70s and ’80s,” he adds. He also believes in respecting local ingredients and using a simplistic approach to cooking. Here, he shares the recipe of a Roast Chicken Carpaccio.
