Angelo Carannante
CARACOL’S STARRED CHEF
MICHELIN STAR
Chef Angelo Carannante, 1 Michelin star, was born in Naples in August 1979. After studying at the Istituto Alberghiero di Pozzuoli, he moved to the capital where he worked at Antonello Colonna (1 * Michelin) and the RADISSON restaurant BLU ES ROME – Design & SPA Hotel 5 *.
He fulfilled his technique by attending creative cooking courses with the Cerea brothers (2 * Michelin) and Vincenzo Camerucci (1 * Michelin), returned to Campania, collaborating with Giuseppe D’Addio of the “Dolce e Salato” school. In 2011 he started his experience at the Marennà Restaurant (1 * Michelin), working as a Sous-Chef under the direction of Paolo Barrale. However, it was on the Sorrento Coast that he was able to get the inspiration for defining the Mediterranean identity of his current cuisine. After that, he held the position of Executive Sous-Chef of the Terrazza Bosquet Restaurant of the timeless Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria in Sorrento, obtaining 1 * Michelin in 2013 with Luigi Tramontano.
