When acclaimed chef Massimo Bottura was first approached to take over the legendary Ristorante Cavallino at the Ferrari factory in Maranello, he turned the offer down. “I didn’t think I could do it, so I said no,” says Bottura.
Born and raised in nearby Modena, Bottura – holder of three Michelin stars at his restaurant Osteria Francescana in the heart of the city, just 30 minutes from Maranello – was familiar with Cavallino from a young age.
