Chef of the Piazza Duomo restaurant in Italy
Enrico Crippa, a three-Michelin-starred chef, leads Piazza Duomo in Alba, where he offers a delicate, inventive, and refined cuisine that celebrates the richness of the plant world.
With produce sourced from his biodynamic gardens and greenhouse, he showcases biodiversity and seasonality through truly unique creations.
Awarded a Michelin Green Star, Piazza Duomo is internationally recognized for its pioneering approach to plant-based gastronomy, and ranked 32nd in The World’s 50 Best Restaurants in 2025.
The concept of Garden Gastronomy perfectly reflects the values that guide my cooking. Driven by great curiosity and deep respect for the plant world, I appreciate the wealth of inspiration it provides me daily. Respecting the seasons — with their unique aromas, colors, and flavors — is a priority. Flowers, vegetables, and herbs continually deliver new emotions that I strive to express in my dishes.
Enrico Crippa’s work reflects the richness of his terroir, combining exceptional ingredients with unmatched technical mastery.
Committed to seasonality and showcasing produce from his own garden, the Chef also incorporates influences from around the world. His dishes are understated and elegant, fully celebrating the ingredients he elevates.
Experience the purest expression of Pinot Noir with La Grande Dame 2018, a celebration of Madame Clicquot's unique vision, drive and audacity.
Its deep and precise style is characterized by subtle finesse and freshness, expressed through its salinity. Intense aromas emerge through a delicate scent of citrus - lemon, lime, yuzu - blended with white fruit, enhanced by spring and floral notes.
The restaurant occupies a building dating back to the 1600s, located on the main square of Alba’s historic center. Its large pink dining room, adorned with a vaulted ceiling decorated with a modern fresco inspired by the landscape, offers a breathtaking view of the square.
Enrico Crippa’s cuisine is a true journey through time and space, guided by taste, color, and textures.
Inspired by Madame Clicquot’s audacious spirit, Garden Gastronomy, born in 2021, is an initiative that brings together a community of Michelin-starred chefs from around the world, creating bespoke food and champagne pairings specially imagined for La Grande Dame.
This approach invites a rediscovery of taste through a truly authentic culinary experience. The chefs’ creativity is expressed through the celebration of garden-grown ingredients—freshly harvested fruits and vegetables—echoing those cultivated in the Maison’s emblematic kitchen garden at the Manoir de Verzy.
