8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA Shanghai 7th Anniversary

Umberto Bombana先生上一次抵滬還是在2019年，四年之間，隔著千裡江海，世事變遷，Umberto Bombana先生對於團隊同仁的共同付出和收獲感動不已，政策放寬後第一時間來到中國，將2023年的相逢定在甜蜜的五月，與上海的新老食客一同感受520的溫馨甜蜜。

The last time Umberto Bombana visited Shanghai was in 2019 for 8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA Shanghai 7th Anniversary, and though the world has changed a lot since then, he was moved by the Shanghai team’s consistent commitment to quality, so he made the decision to come to Shanghai as soon as Covid restrictions were relaxed.

Umberto Bombana先生出生於意大利北部的貝加莫，在學廚生涯中頻遇良師，逐漸樹立起極富個人風格的烹飪理念。2002年，他獲得意大利外國人烹飪學院頒發Italian Culinary Institute for Foreigners(ICIF)頒發的“全亞洲最優秀意大利菜廚師”一殊榮，又於2006年，獲得意大利 Piedmontese Regional Enoteca Cavour委任為「國際白松露大使」，被世人稱為「白松露之王」。

Umberto Bombana hails from Bergamo in northern Italy, where he developed an interest in food at a young age. He moved to Hong Kong in 1993 to open Toscana at the Ritz-Carlton, which he led for 15 years. In 2002, he was awarded the title of “Asia’s Best Italian Chef” by the Italian Culinary Institute for Foreigners, and in 2006, he was appointed “International White Truffle Ambassador”by the Piedmontese Regional Enoteca Cavour. Today, he is known around the world as the “King of White Truffles.”

2010年，Umberto Bombana先生在香港自立門戶，以他鐘愛的意大利殿堂級導演費裡尼經典名作《8½ 》為餐廳命名，開設8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA餐廳，於2011年獲得米其林三星殊榮並保持至今——這是在意大利本土之外唯一獲此榮譽的意大利餐廳。2013年餐廳更成為「全球最佳50大餐廳」之一，亦是香港唯一入圍的米其林三星食府。

In 2010, Chef Bombana opened his own restaurant in Hong Kong, naming it after his favourite director, Federico Fellini’s, masterpiece 8½. In 2011, 8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA Hong Kong was awarded three Michelin stars, the only Italian restaurant outside of Italy to receive this honour. In 2013, the restaurant was named one of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants.
