On November 26, 2024, Eat Your Habitat and Wooding Lab will be at the Teatro Arcimboldi in Milan for the presentation event of the 2025 edition of L’Espresso’s guide to the best restaurants in Italy.
Milan is set to host an extraordinary event on November 26 at the prestigious Teatro degli Arcimboldi: the celebration of the release of the new L’Espresso Guide dedicated to Italy’s finest restaurants. This year, the event will spotlight chefs and projects devoted to sustainability and culinary innovation, including Valeria Margherita Mosca, founder of Wooding, and the Eat Your Habitat team.
Valeria Mosca and Wooding Lab: Rediscovering Foraging in Cuisine
Valeria Mosca, one of Italy’s pioneers in foraging, will lead the preparation of a dish that is more than just food; it’s an homage to nature, biodiversity, and the knowledge of wild resources in the landscape. Through Wooding Lab, Valeria has crafted a solid path that combines scientific research with the practice of foraging, bringing to light native and often forgotten ingredients. With the responsible gathering of herbs, roots, and mushrooms, the dish she will present is a journey through the authentic and intense flavors of our natural ecosystem, enriched by a deep respect for sustainability.
Eat Your Habitat: Sustainability and Local Ingredients on the Table
Alongside Wooding, the Eat Your Habitat team will enrich the evening with a culinary creation that celebrates the concept of “eating your habitat.” Founded on principles of sustainability and responsibility, Eat Your Habitat offers an approach that fits perfectly with this year’s theme: bringing ingredients to the table that are gathered and selected in harmony with natural cycles and biodiversity. Through partnerships with local producers and sustainable foraging practices, Eat Your Habitat embodies a philosophy of deep environmental connection, offering a gastronomic experience that aims to educate and inspire.
An Unmissable Event for the 2025 Guide de L’Espresso
The presentation event of the 2025 Guide de L’Espresso is a celebration of Italian haute cuisine with a forward-looking approach, blending tradition, innovation, and environmental respect. Milan and the Teatro degli Arcimboldi will thus provide the ideal setting to showcase the work of chefs and projects that have reimagined cuisine through the exploration of forgotten ingredients and techniques.
The encounter with Valeria Mosca, Wooding Lab, and Eat Your Habitat offers an opportunity to experience a different way of thinking about gastronomy, where nature and creativity come together to create dishes capable of telling stories and embodying the essence of their origins.
