When I think of fine Italian dining and specialty wines, the name Piero Selvaggio, comes to mind, and we spoke with him recently on our #LittleItalyOfLA Podcast.

Piero founded the legendary West LA restaurant, Valentino, and his famous recipes, buffalo mozzarella, truffles, and wine selection became synonymous with fine dining. Piero has since closed Valentino, and now brings his master selection to the famed Drago restaurant in downtown Los Angeles.

Piero has a fascinating story, born in Sicily, he quickly rose to become one of the great Italian master chefs, bringing his own unique style to welcome some of Hollywood’s elite into his restaurants.

Piero is also a wine expert, and his selection of wines at Valentino and now Drago are highly regarded by every major magazine and sought after internationally.

Hear all about Piero, his life, and he even gives us a lesson or two in fine dining, LIVE on Facebook, YouTube, IGTV, and all podcast platforms on @LittleItalyOfLA and #DeborahKobyltLIVE, with our host, #DeborahZaraKobylt. You’ll leave hungry🇮🇹
