Sherbeth Off: A Commitment to Inclusion and Taste
Al Fresco — Garden, Pizza & Bistro Chef Simone Gambino · Master Gelato Maker Noè Pinetti
Saturday 14 November · 21:00–22:00
DA DEFINIRE
Pizza and gelato come together in a celebration of taste and inclusion. Dough, ingredients, and temperatures will provide the common ground for Simone Gambino and Noè Pinetti to explore creative pairings between pizza and artisanal gelato. An evening that also highlights the value of opportunity: learning a trade, working together, and building connections through food. Al Fresco, led by Chef Simone Gambino, is located in the garden of Casa San Francesco, a former 17th-century convent in Palermo’s Ballarò district. Born from the experience of Cotti in Fragranza and managed by the social cooperative Rigenerazioni, it brings together dining, training, and employment inclusion. Noè Pinetti, Master Gelato Maker at La Carapina in Rivalta di Reggio Emilia, focuses on locally sourced ingredients and original flavor combinations. His creative exploration includes gelato interpretations of traditional Emilian cuisine, from erbazzone to cappelletti.
