About Davide Giovanni Papa Expertise For professional chefs and home cooks-questions relating to the Authentic Classical recipes of Italy;No desserts questions at this stage:No homestyle cookery questions:Italian classical cuisine is on the verge of vanishing;I would like to establish a Classical International Recipe base so that no matter where you eat,the right recipe is served."Mums" cooking is fine..but I get angry when a classical recipe is implied which it`s not.
Being italian does not automatically make you a good Italian chef..on the contrary it only means that the food you have been served has been done so by a person of Italian origins-Classical Italian recipes are clealy defined by history as well as research-and by the entity known by Academy of Italian cookery Rome-anything else is unacceptable. The French have converted from regional recipes to an established uniform protocol for hundreds of years..it`s time the Italian cuisine did the same-and applaud the Italian government in establishing laws to protect such recipes from any further corruption.Customer have the right to know exactly what they`re eating...Regards Chef Davide:

Question Where can I find this oil in the U.S? I'm in Richmond, VA and can't find it anywhere.
Answer
Dear Nancy
There is a general inexpensive supermarket type "Lupi olive oil"- then there is the very special very expensive gourmet olive oil defined as "Benzi and Lupi" which is very hard to get-
I'm from Melbourne, Australia- hence I really can't tell you where you could find it in the USA-
Kind Regards
Chef Davide
