An Italian chef, Andrea Berton won 4 Michelin stars—a major achievement and one the highest honours in the culinary industry. In the 90s he worked at Gualtiero Marchesi’s Via Bonvesin de la Riva in Milan. Afterwards, the chef also worked at Alain Ducasse’s Louis XV restaurant in Monte Carlo as well.
The chef claimed his first Michelin star at Taverna di Colloredo di Monte Albano where he was the head chef. Afterwards, his collaboration with Ristorante Trussardi alla Scala earned the restaurant two Michelin stars; one in 2008 and another in 2009. Meanwhile, Andrea Berton’s Ristorante Berton earned a Michelin star in less than a year after its opening.
