Everything is ready to return to the stoves of Messetvola, the RTP show cooking dedicated to our traditions in the kitchen and beyond. Tuesday is time to resume the race after the summer break. The first part of the second edition was completed in June and now space for the “repechage” and the three episodes of semifinals that will open the door to the final that will decide the successor of Roberto Antonuccio.
Tuesday evening at 9 pm on RTP (replies on the same day at 11.10 pm, on Wednesday at 11 and 16 and Saturday at 9 pm) the doors of the cuisine of the splendid location of the “Corte dei Mari” will return to open up, under the directives of Chef Paolo Romeo. We said the repechage: three competitors who despite the defeat in the first phase of the game will have another chance to move forward. These are the bartender Gianluca Parisi, the journalist Floriana Riso and the clothing trader Nico Scandurra. They will have to measure themselves with a dish chosen by Paolo Romeo: the tomato pasta. As easy as it is complex because it hides a thousand pitfalls in order not to fall into banality.
“It was the first course we thought about for the play -off – tell the conductor Salvatore De Maria and Paolo Romeo – because in simplicity the true capabilities of a” chef “emerge, the talent in its most elementary and convincing form. We will see what they will be able to do, not forgetting that with another apparently easy ingredient, the egg, some competitors have crashed ».
To taste and comment on the proposals, as always, the technical jury, composed of Salvatore De Maria, in the double role of judge and conductor alongside Valeria Zingale; Alberto Palella, president of Confesercenti and creator of Messina Street Food Fest; Will be Gugliotta, president of Associbo. To them will be added the Professor Nico Cicero of Unime (Biomorf Department), Antonella Ruggeri owner of the “Court of the Mari”, the lawyer Daniele Passaro and Giovanni Salvo, viticulturist Company Principles of Mola and Sommelier Ais.
“We are here, we enter the highlight of the program – comments Mauro Cucè, editorial coordinator of RTP and Gazzetta del Sud and in the production of the program -. After this episode we will have the nine competitors who will play from here in the end the victory in this second edition which in terms of listening and sponsor was a sensational success, overcoming the already extraordinary results of the first edition. On the horizon is the Messina Street Food Fest in October where our winner will be in the square alongside renowned chefs. And from this synergy was born this splendid experience that is giving many emotions ».
