At the end of the first part, the young chefs presented their creation to the technical committee who chose three finalists. There were ten kitchens for the young chefs and twenty stations for the designers.
At 7.30 a spectacular set design was ready to welcome the 320 selected guests. A 30 meters stage with a Led Wall, some animation about San Pellegrino, the images of the young competitors and a colourful mise en place created in collaboration with Vogue. Surrounded by this evocative atmosphere, the finalists and the grand jury performed a great fine dining show.
Pure entertainment was not absent from the schedule: Alessandro Cattelan hosted the night with his experience and sense of humour, together with the talented Street Clerks and their music which gave more emphasis to the event and its most important moments. Simone al Ani, the winner of Italia’s Got Talent, surprised the guests with his performance and his innate talent which is a mix between magic and mastery.
