From our home,
to yours.
Hi everyone, we’re Fabio and Agnese, a trained cook and a stylist, and the voices behind the Venetian Kitchen.
We grew up in Venice and the countryside, surrounded by mammas and nonnas who taught us recipes and stories from the lagoon, plains, and mountains. Over ten years ago, we moved to yet another island and extraordinary town: London. While we’ve grown to love our new home, our heart remains with Venice and the Veneto region – a centuries‑long fusion of cultures that continues to inspire us.
Through The Venetian Kitchen, we bring those flavours and stories to our table, and to tables everywhere.
Our recipes are shaped by childhood memories in Venice and the countryside, and by the journeys back home that continue to inspire us. Guided by nature and seasonality, each recipe carries a spirit of simplicity, honesty, and celebration, while also embracing creativity.
Alongside cooking, we focus on the art of slow living and tables designed for togetherness. We like to think that more than food, the Venetian Kitchen is about community and connection – sharing the untold stories of our Venetian cuisine and creating moments of warmth wherever people gather.
Beyond the Venetian Kitchen, Fabio runs Brixton Windmill baking classes throughout the year. Agnes leads on recipe development and food styling, as well as interior‑designing and table‑scaping welcoming spaces and dining tables for our cooking classes.
We are both members of the Venice in Peril Fund, the leading British charity dedicated to safeguarding the rich cultural heritage of Venice, now and for future generations.
We’re grateful you’re here, and we hope you’ll cook along with us – through our recipes, our classes, and the stories that make every dish a celebration of flavour and comforting simplicity.
Fabio and Agnese
