“Each dish takes us on a journey through time and space, evoking memories of a distant past and connecting them to the present. Each dish is a bridge between childhood and maturity, a journey through time that tells stories of family, traditions and precious moments.”

Chef

Davide Marcon

Davide Marcon was born in Ivrea (TO) in 1992. From adolescence, he harbored a deep interest in home cooking, a passion that led him to enroll in culinary school. At the age of 16, he began gaining seasonal work experience in Valle d’Aosta. Concurrently with obtaining his diploma, he came into contact with Chef Davide Oldani, who offered him the opportunity to work at D’O restaurant in San Pietro all’Olmo (MI), distinguished with a Michelin star. This experience profoundly impacted Davide, introducing him to the world of Michelin-starred restaurants for the first time. Under Oldani, renowned for his “”POP”” cuisine, Davide learned that haute cuisine is not solely about expensive and rare ingredients, but rather about technique and their preparation. This concept continues to influence Chef Marcon to this day.

Kitchen Style

Chef Davide’s culinary style primarily revolves around the interplay of contrasts within a dish, juxtaposing flavors, textures, and temperatures. At the heart of this philosophy, Chef Marcon strives to evoke emotions and sensations that transcend the mere act of eating, offering diners a comprehensive sensory experience. In the fast-paced era we live in, what remains etched in people’s minds is not necessarily a single flavor, but rather the entire gastronomic experience.

In line with this principle, Chef Davide’s cuisine is rooted in the evocation of childhood memories, the reinterpretation of traditional dishes, and the use of somewhat uncommon ingredients, while avoiding an obsessive pursuit of exotic and extravagant elements.

Philosophy

Since the outset, Davide’s ambition has always been to blend ingredients in his dishes to create unique flavors and contrasts. His creations feature unusual tastes and textures that surprisingly complement each other. From his early days in professional kitchens, Davide was struck and fascinated by the vastness of knowledge and discoveries in the culinary world, driving him over the years to continually improve and learn as much as possible. His first mentor, Davide Oldani, a disciple of Chef Gualtiero Marchesi, once stated that people are like sponges: they absorb knowledge as they continue to learn, eventually reaching a point where they begin to pass it on to future generations of professionals. 

Services

The Marcon Chef project perfectly embodies Chef Davide’s passion for cooking. One of the ways through which this passion is conveyed is through Marcon Chef Courses: classes designed for small groups, where the beauty of culinary art is explored. Participants learn from basic to advanced techniques, familiarize themselves with ingredients, and understand their optimal use. After attending Marcon Chef courses, you will see cooking in a new light. Feel comfortable around the stove and prepare dishes that once seemed complex and inaccessible.
