Chefs by Nature: Celebrating Culinary Artistry on Kaua'i

FEATURING CHEF RICCARDO GASPARI
Riccardo Gaspari’s culinary story is rooted in the rugged beauty of the Dolomites and shaped by his discipline as a former professional athlete. Guided by a philosophy of regenerative cuisine, he champions a deep respect for the land, seasonality, and the Alpine community that inspires him. Through his Michelin-starred restaurant SanBrite, the welcoming Brite de Larieto Inn, and the artisanal Piccolo Brite Dairy, Riccardo brings the flavors of the mountains to life, transforming local resources into refined, soulful dishes. Together with his partner and collaborator, Ludovica Rubbini, they are redefining Alpine hospitality, blending contemporary vision with tradition and setting a new global standard for sustainable gastronomy.
