Mediterranean at heart, Jérôme Di Marino was born in the French Alps, where the two countries of his parents met. His father's family is from Abruzzo, Italy, and his mother's, the French Savoy. He grew up in a small village in Haute-Savoie, where his bedroom overlooked the Mont Blanc. He savored a life in the open air, roaming free and insouciant. The olfactory picture of his childhood is thus composed of frank touches – those of wooden and waxed interiors, of the oily green scent of cedar hedges, of a kitchen with basil and of the pizzelle, an Italian waffle encrusted with lemon and anise. Keen on culinary aromas, even today when Di Marino travels, first on the itinerary would be the local markets, where he discovers the regional produce – fruits, spices, vegetables – as well as traditional recipes.
