He passed away at 83: the passion for cooking born from spying on home recipes In his vip restaurant and friends, he was the temple of boiled meat and new ideas
SILEA. It makes us smile to think that one of the best known and most appreciated restaurateurs in the province had started working as a carpenter. But for him the passion for cooking and recipes came with life, «spying in the kitchen an aunt who had a pension and Jesolo» says his daughter Chiara. Thus, over time, an experience and a name have been gained; and Dino – or rather “da Dino” in Silea – has become a guarantee of a taste experience, without frills.
Dino Stevanato passed away on Sunday 12 September. He was 83 years old, most of whom lived in the kitchen among pots, dishes, condiments, friendly flavors that he had always tried to share, keeping his feet firmly in tradition, but without ever taking his eyes and mouth away from the news. “He certainly knew more about the walls of the restaurant than the ones at home” remember in the family his wife Maria, married fifty years ago, and his daughters Chiara and Silvia who with Dino lived the daily growth of a trattoria that has become a small temple of amplifies bone.
There, families and managers, writers and actors, well-known industrialists of the Brand and passing people, who knew what to advise and what direction to give, crossed the tables. Yes, because, a little curiosity, unlike many (all?) The others, the restaurant has no sign: it has the appearance of a house, well-kept and green. What basically has always been.
Dino Stevanato has always focused on family management, sure of what it meant in terms of values, even before business. And in fact, tomorrow the restaurant will always be run by his wife and daughters, who attended young people at the birth of “Trattoria da Dino” (opened in 1981 after a first experience in the Lanzago kitchen, in the “Primavera” restaurant which he opened with his wife for then move a little farther) and who have been taking care of the “home recipe” for years.
