HO FAME! HO FAME!

At Osteria Francescana, cooking is not a sequence of recipes. It is a cultural act, a living language.

HO FAME! HO FAME! — I’m hungry! I’m hungry! — is a menu that echoes the ceramic artwork of Vincenzo Cabiati, installed among the bottles of our wine cellar.

It is our voice and our hunger: the desire to know everything and, at the same time, to challenge everything.

Guided by the artists who inspire us, the traditions that root us, and the culture that surrounds us, this menu explores the influence of art on our culinary practice.

Cooking does not only nourish the belly. It feeds the hunger for the beauty of humanity — across past, present, and future.
