Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia and then back to Indonesia: Chef Michele Cuozzo, born in Sala Consilina in the province of Salerno, began his career in Asia about 20 years ago, winding up finally in Indonesia last year. \u201cIt all began by chance. I was teaching the art of pizza making, a passion of mine that turned into a job. Once you\u2019ve been to Asia, you\u2019ll always go back. Now I manage an Italian restaurant\u201d. Michele speaks about his experiences to “Cartoline dall’ altra Italia”\u201d,\u00a0a web series created by 9colonne with the support of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation\u2019s Directorate General for Italians Abroad and Migration Policies. His specialty is simplicity: \u201cTraditional dishes, respecting the true flavour of the ingredients without altering them too much\u201d is the secret the cook who has become Indonesia\u2019s first Italian \u201cpizza chef\u201d. Michele sees his future in Jakarta, but never say never. \u201cYou can never hang your hat in one place in the restaurant business, I\u2019m always on the move, especially in Asia, where there is a great demand for Italian chefs\u201d. \u00a0<\/p>\n
Each week \u201cCartoline dall\u2019altra Italia\u201d goes in search of the new emigration; creating links with young Italians who, either for need or simple desire, have decided to try their luck abroad.
