Event Overview

The acclaimed International Chefs Forum, Identità Golose, returns to Eataly Chicago for its eighth U.S. edition this fall. In this unique pizza-focused master class, you will enjoy two pizza dishes created by Italian chefs Federico Della Vecchia, Vittorio and Saverio Borgia of Bioesseri in Milano and American chef Sarah Minnick of Lovely Fifty Fifty in Portland, Oregon. As they work their magic, you will enjoy each dish — prepared and plated before your eyes! — served with complementary wine pairings.

Every year, Identità Golose brings together some of the most notable chefs and most celebrated culinary personalities for a three-day celebration. Four engaging master classes will invite a handful of epicureans to experience the work of these all-star chefs firsthand, and to be exposed to the latest techniques and trends that define today’s culinary world.

Saverio, Vittorio Borgia & Sarah Minnick

Sicilian brothers Saverio and Vittorio Borgia are pizzaioli (pizza makers) who run two restaurants bearing the same name in two different cities, Bioesserì in Milan and Palermo. At Bioesserì, the brothers rely heavily on high-quality ingredients to fill their menu with dishes that reflect Italy — including pizza Napoletana. When dining, their goal is for you to understand and believe that bio is synonymous with taste, goodness, and health.

Sarah Minnick is the co-owner of Lovely’s Fifty Fifty, a trendy pizza-focused restaurant located in Portland, Oregon. Sarah is a self-taught pizzaiola (pizza maker) who creates “market-to-oven pies” with an extreme focus on seasonal ingredients topping her wood-fired pizzas. Lovely’s Fifty Fifty fosters close relationships with local farmers and producers and buys 100% of the vegetables, cheese, and meat used in their pizzas from them. In 2017, Sarah was awarded the best pizza title at Identità Milano; similarly, it is said that she has "perfected the Portland pizza" and is known as the best pizza maker in Portland.

EATALY Manifesto

1. WE'RE IN LOVE WITH FOOD.
We love high-quality food and drink. We love the stories about it, the people who produce it, and the places it comes from.

2. FOOD UNITES US ALL.
Good food brings all of us together and helps us find a common point of view.
We believe that one of the greatest sources of joy is what happens around the dinner table.

3. OUR PASSION HAS BECOME OUR JOB.
We've dedicated our daily lives to promoting a real understanding of high-quality food and drink. How lucky are we that we get to do what we love?

4. THE SECRET TO QUALITY OF LIFE? QUALITY PRODUCTS.
By creating and offering the best products, we improve our own lives and bring added value to yours.
Enter a world dedicated to quality: that means quality food, quality drink, and ultimately, quality time.

5. OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS EVERYONE.
Whether you're here to buy a loaf of bread, prepare for a lavish dinner, or sit down to enjoy a meal, we want this to be your place. We want you to be comfortable, happy, and enriched by every visit.

6. EAT. SHOP. LEARN.
This is a store with stories. Here, you won't just discover what you love: you'll also learn about what you love.

7. WE'RE IN THIS TOGETHER.
What you choose every day determines what we'll stock on our shelves over time. When you demand quality products, you support the local farmers, fishermen, butchers, bakers, and cheesemakers who produce them. You create a better environment—for eating and beyond.

8. OUR THREE PROMISES TO YOU:
* Choice: We offer a diverse selection of quality food and drink.
* Accessibility: We are dedicated to offering the best products at the lowest possible price points.
* Knowledge: We feel that it's not just important that we know everything about what we sell and serve but that you also learn about the products we are so passionate about. We share with you the stories of the people and places behind all that we offer. The more you know, the more you enjoy.

9. YOUR TRUST IS EARNED EVERY DAY.
In all ways, we promise to be scrupulously honest. We'll never encourage you to buy more than you need or spend more than you can afford.

10. THE END GOAL.
Our goal is to have you as our customer for a lifetime. The easiest means to that end is to offer the best food and drink, as well as the best environment in which to discover and expand your tastes.

On that note, we look forward to seeing you again very soon!
