Subscribed. You'll go far in youtube but you already know it. You didn't improvise, you made a "business plan" and it shows. A tip, you'll have to go to Villa Crespi eventually.
@@yonatanben-chaim9747no they shouldn't be longer, if u understand how youtube works, avp and and are most important. These videos are perfect length for what they are
My wife and I had the chance to dine there in 2008. We were 29 years old. Everything was amazing. We toured the wine cellar, sat in the same dining room. We had a 14 course menu with a Super Tuscan flight wine pairing. I even remember that water menu which was incredible. We were there over 4 hours. At the end of the meal, Annie Féolde stopped by our table to chat. Knowing we were from California, and loved Napa Valley, she told us a story about going to Napa, bringing wine and food with her and eating with Robert Mondavi in his dining room. What a story! We left with a bottle of wine signed by her and Giorgio, a box of fine chocolates and a book about three star Michelin restaurants. We spent about $2000 USD on the dinner and we have a story to last a lifetime. I hope to dine there again on our next trip to Italy. We booked our table either 3 or 6 months in advance.
I would love it if these become more in-depth, talking about the different cooking techniques and what you would possibly do differently or why the flavors match so well. Love all the videos so far, very underrated channel!
as a person who spends a lot of time and energy to travel around the world visiting famous restaurants and drinking special wines I must say. At the end of every video I have tears on my eyes
I’ve just binged all of your videos and subscribed. Thank you for taking us with you to restaurants I can only dream about. Your objectivity and professionalism is very refreshing. Your love of food shines through.
This is a great choice for a video and spot on. On honeymoon, I went to Enoteca Pinchiori in 1987, and it was wonderful, and as described here. We had a fantastic medieval (or Renaissance?) tasting menu. I remember an extraordinary consomme with a poached egg as one on the best dishes I have ever had. So simple but exquisite. Funnily, it was the first time I encountered a motion detecting faucet. The maitre d' was so charming when he saw me come out of the restroom with a puzzled look on my face.
Florence has to be one of my favourite cities in the world. The production quality of this videos is so good too. Small details like the number of bottles of wine stacking up to over the height of mount Etna ten times just make this video even better.
I and my wife went there two nights in a row because it was that good...food, service...and get this, we don't drink 😂 I am sure they never thought this would happen but the second night they sent our way all desserts as a compliment. At that time, there were 6 in total so we had a good laugh and a very delicious ending 🤣 But yes, it is 100% amazing...the wine list was the size of encyclopedia Britannica (the paper form) 😂
My wife and I have dined here. We didn’t know how ‘exclusive’ this place was. It’s a nice place for dinner. One is there to eat and drink. Not change a car tire. The wine book was surprising as I never encountered a wine list so extensive before. It reminded me of the movie Spy with Melissa McCarthy when she was handed the restaurants wine book. She wanted something with a lot of noise with the consistency of hummus that has been thinned out. Anyway. It was a yummy meal. I think we had a burgundy instead of an Italian wine. The owner was there. Thanked him for the yummy meal. And went back to our hotel to sleep. Never thought of making a mini self documentary about it.
I was waiting for you to do this restaurant, it was the first 3 star restaurant that I had visited and to me still the best. In 2005 they offered a pairing that was €10,000; unfortunately, my wife would allow me to order it 😢.
Outstanding!! I love that they have a specialty water program. The best chef I worked for ended up opening a restaurant in Baja California (Aqua by Larbhi) where they have a list with over 100 selections of water (one offering is sourced from deep underground aquifers, fed by glaciers that had been previously frozen for millennia - one symptom of global warming). Another is at near full saturation with oxygen - giving the drinker an odd inebriation.
Amazing channel, so far all the videos offer really good, constructive and credible reviews (well this one is impeccable and... will put Florence my future trips!)
Alexander is getting better the more exited he is LOL. Great review getting addicted LOL, one day, one day i am going to visit this place. Thanks for the briljant review, entertaining & appreciated. Subscribed.
I caught that too and was just getting ready to ask the same question, seeing as how the first vintage of Sass was 1968. The bottle being pulled as he said that was not Sass, but the box next to it was 😊
The service it self was amazing i was sitted at the garden with was very lovable when i was there i tried the evolution menu which was diffrent then the 1 presented in the video There was also a vegeterian menu and a la carter option with some red wine tea that come in great presentation the ambience was beyond amazing the wine book is litterly so insane i easily got lost in it
Wish we could have had a drink when you were in NYC. It will be interesting to see what you think of the standard 3 stars here. Brooklyn Fare would be worth the revisit.
Another great video Alex, I wonder if in the future you’ll consider the trip to Oceania and have a proper review of our “Hat” system awarded restaurants
Thank you very much for the great videos - fantastic content and I am a wine lover as well. I am so curious to know what was hand written on the paper as recommendation... ;-)
I notice in many of your amazingly concise and informative videos that you wear jacket and tie. Is this compulsory dress-code in the restaurants or do you just like to dress up when eating out? 😉 I've never worn a jacket and tie just to eat, nor would I to be honest, though I understand the need for smart attire in some establishments.
In Belgium we have 3 three-star restaurants Hof Van Cleve, 't Zilte and Boury. Hope to visit these when you are in belgium sometime. I look, forward to your objective opinion.
have you ever visited the restaurant Veneza in Paderne, Algarve? World record with more that 2000 Portuguese wines, and a nice selection of more than 50 champagnes. Prices surprisingly low, except when you order "100 years" plus port wines . The food is simple traditional Portuguese cuisine, but interesting, but I go there and say what my favorite wines are, and then conclude: now, please surprise me. I always discover a new wine
Nevermind the wine bottles reaching more than 10x the height of Mt. Etna. It's FAR more impressive to say that they would reach more than 2.5x the height of Mt. EVEREST!!!
Another excellent video! Do you have any plans in the near future to dining in any restaurants in the US? I would love to see your thoughts at Singlethread in Healdsburg CA. I am hoping on traveling there for my upcoming 30th birthday.
great video! this is one of those michelin restaurant where i can understand the reason it is at the top. I can't say the same for many (most?) of the others, especially when you start moving out from france and italy... (someone said juice pairings? )
How did I miss this Episode, I have been Binge watching?! As for the food looked delicious, but I would request something other than Snails... The Wine cellar, I am actually not much into wine unless I am cooking with it, but I could get lost in that Wine Cellar, Hahahahahahahaha 😂!!!
I never liked white wine until I drank wine this year at a one-star restaurant and it was fantastic. Now we've bought the wines they were nice enough to mail us. Even without the food pairing those wines can make an addict out of anyone :)

What happened to Chef's Table at Brooklyn Fare? :p
Can't wait for the masa episode!
How about De Librije in the Netherlands?
Subscribed. You'll go far in youtube but you already know it. You didn't improvise, you made a "business plan" and it shows. A tip, you'll have to go to Villa Crespi eventually.
This channel is becoming addictive.
It's very high quality. The only thing that would make it better is if the videos were longer.
Very much so
It really is

amazing
Great value !
Definitely a story worth telling to future generations. Amazing!
Correction: The first vintage of Sassicaia was 1968, not 1872. Sorry for the mistake. 🙏
OMG, you need to be imprisoned immediately.
I would love it if these become more in-depth, talking about the different cooking techniques and what you would possibly do differently or why the flavors match so well.
Love all the videos so far, very underrated channel!
Food and flavors can be matched or exceeded by other restaurants, but the history, background, service, and setting are more unique qualities
as a person who spends a lot of time and energy to travel around the world visiting famous restaurants and drinking special wines I must say. At the end of every video I have tears on my eyes
This channel has quickly become one of my favourites. Thank you Alexander.

This restaurant is out of this world in a beautiful, classic way.
Best new channel I’ve discovered in the last 12 months. Delightful content time after time.
Your channel is DYNAMITE. My taste buds live vicariously though you. THANK YOU and keep up the great work!
love how he is honest with his reviews. Great show
Simply please don’t stop doing this Alexander, such a great insight and presented so elegantly… My thanks to you and your team
One of my all time favourite restaurants, I haven’t been in almost 10 years! I’m very happy to see they’re still keeping excellent quality.
This channel is perfect after a long day for relaxation
I’m so poor but I love watching this videos it’s motivating me to get rich and try this life thank you for your videos
Loving the channel.
i was 1st
This place did a killer job presenting.. wow. the plates they used made each course look even better. well done
it’s great to see non-chef owners with this kind of passion. Your restaurant will probably grow better and better with this rich experience
You are the reason I come back on UA-cam! Keep the quality videos coming my man. 👌
This channel is the best discovery I have ever made on UA-cam
Thank you!

Your content is simply excellent, I can't believe this channel hasn't blown up yet.
One of the best food Chanels on youtube
This channel has been really entertaining and interesting! Happy to have found it.
The great feeling when the man himself Alexander is wearing a sport jacket in a fabric you also own. Amazing video as always!
Wowwwwwww amazing I can’t stop watching these videos ❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Your videos have better production than most cable documentaries
Wow what a boss, great way to celebrate i am sure everyone will remember it forever!
the animations at sec 43 are really beautiful! props to the motion grahpicer!
Great video - keep them coming! Just one thing: the first vintage of Sassicaia was 1968 - 1872 Sassicaia doesn’t exist.
thanks for the information. we write the correction to the top comment.
Love your high quality vids, think I really found a gem here ^^
So nice of you to take there your whole team 👍👍
Most interesting series on youtube this year!
My wife and I have dined here.

Hey Alexander, I rarely comment on anything!
But I must say you became a real inspiration.
I doubt I'd like much of the food and I don't drink but I can't help but watch your videos as all these places look incredible.
Amazing channel. I like everything about it. The video quality, the insights and the host. Thanks for producing these videos :)
This channel should have been called "Alexander The Great!" 🤯💯
I was waiting for you to do this restaurant, it was the first 3 star restaurant that I had visited and to me still the best. In 2005 they offered a pairing that was €10,000; unfortunately, my wife would allow me to order it 😢.
We have a car that is less expensive :)
luxury in Italy never disappoints
Outstanding!! I love that they have a specialty water program. The best chef I worked for ended up opening a restaurant in Baja California (Aqua by Larbhi) where they have a list with over 100 selections of water (one offering is sourced from deep underground aquifers, fed by glaciers that had been previously frozen for millennia - one symptom of global warming).

I really like this channel. keep it up man.
1m subs let’s go! In love with channel.
Great video and editing!
Amazing channel, so far all the videos offer really good, constructive and credible reviews (well this one is impeccable and... will put Florence my future trips!)
This content is amazing sir! Keep it coming brother!
Alexander is getting better the more exited he is LOL. Great review getting addicted LOL, one day, one day i am going to visit this place. Thanks for the briljant review, entertaining & appreciated. Subscribed.
An amazing series, been loving watching it
This channel is bloody fantastic - great stuff Alexander
you will come out big, keep up the good work sir
I would love to see that handwritten winelist you got from the sommelier!
Alexander i love you're content!
The wine selection looked more like a directory, that's amazing.
I love your videos! cant wait for more
Really loved the video!
Just a Question: what Vintage was the Sassicaia from? 6:36
I caught that too and was just getting ready to ask the same question, seeing as how the first vintage of Sass was 1968. The bottle being pulled as he said that was not Sass, but the box next to it was 😊
Thank you
The service it self was amazing i was sitted at the garden with was very lovable when i was there i tried the evolution menu which was diffrent then the 1 presented in the video
There was also a vegeterian menu and a la carter option with some red wine tea that come in great presentation the ambience was beyond amazing the wine book is litterly so insane i easily got lost in it
Wish we could have had a drink when you were in NYC. It will be interesting to see what you think of the standard 3 stars here. Brooklyn Fare would be worth the revisit.
Your videos are exceptional
Another great video! Keep it up.
Wow, that really looks amazing. I'd love to go there.
great content.
Great episode once again.
I remembered this was the Restaurant where Iron Chef Japan Masahiko Kobe used to be
Me: "I would like some wine."
Waiter: "Sure!" **Brings an entire ENCYCLOPEDIA**
Great work! What a joy to watch. Really curious what the wines on the list are !
Amazing content. Even for a person who is in the begining of their jorney towards food and wine.
Keep it up!
Outstanding! I’m going to Sardinia in a few weeks any recommendations? Recently did some Michelean restaurants in Lake Garda !
Beautiful!
Gratulálok ezen látszott, hogy nagyon jól érezted magad itt:)
Another great video Alex, I wonder if in the future you’ll consider the trip to Oceania and have a proper review of our “Hat” system awarded restaurants
Just booked a table for this restaurant, after watching the video, for in a couple of weeks time 😊
Looks great.
Okay this is it, the holy grail of restaurants, the water menu sealed the deal for me
customer- I'd like to see your wine menu please
Enoteca Pinchiorri- *hands you an encyclopedia*
customer- 🤯
Thank you very much for the great videos - fantastic content and I am a wine lover as well. I am so curious to know what was hand written on the paper as recommendation... ;-)

Petrus by the glass?
Holy.
On the bucket list this one goes.
You should go to Bern's restaurant in Tampa,fl.
Largest active wine cellar in the world.
Another excellent video! Do you have any plans in the near future to dining in any restaurants in the US? I would love to see your thoughts at Singlethread in Healdsburg CA. I am hoping on traveling there for my upcoming 30th birthday.

Huge fan..
Great video! Are you planning to do a video on a restaurant in Belgium? Would love to get your opinion on "Hof van Cleve" ( 3 michelin stars)
Im always waiting for the next episode chef! Keep the amazing work, from a portuguese man in Moçambique!
Whenever I wanna eat normal ass food I can watch these vids and pretend I’m eating some next level boujee comida
How did I miss this Episode, I have been Binge watching?! As for the food looked delicious, but I would request something other than Snails... The Wine cellar, I am actually not much into wine unless I am cooking with it, but I could get lost in that Wine Cellar, Hahahahahahahaha 😂!!!
