Why We Love It
Master Sommelier Bobby Stuckey and Chef Lachlan Mackinnon-Patterson met while swinging for the fences at The French Laundry. Having researched and traveled throughout Italy many times, these young men were most inspired by Friuli: the international influences of its cuisine, the profusion of local ingredients in its rustic yet elegant dishes, its passionate relationship between food and wine, and the gracious hospitality of the locals. Their collective expression of this unique region is Frasca, with Chef Eduardo Valle Lobo now running culinary operations.
