The journey continues on 24 and 31 July 2026 with Chef Gianluca Visciglia, whose cuisine draws inspiration from Northern Italy, the rolling hills of Tuscany, and his family roots in Southern Italy. With more than two decades of experience in luxury hospitality and collaborations with Michelin-starred and celebrity chefs, Chef Gianluca brings a refined interpretation of Italy’s regional diversity to Amerta.

Together, the chefs will present a specially curated six-course dinner celebrating authentic Italian flavours and seasonal ingredients. Guests can look forward to dishes such as Burrata di Melanzana, Raviolini alla Carbonara, Tagliatelle all’Agnello Ubriaco, and a choice of 15 Days Dry Aged AUS Grass Fed Rib Eye or Dentice, Mozzarella e Pomodoro, before ending on a sweet note with Panna Cotta alla Nutella e Lamponi.

“Italian cuisine is deeply connected to memories, generosity and a sense of place,” says Chef Gianni Stargiotti, Executive Chef of Anantara Ubud Bali Resort. “This series is an opportunity to share the flavours of our homeland and invite guests to discover the stories, traditions and regional influences that make Italian cuisine so special.”

Inspired by Anantara’s spirit of meaningful journeys and genuine connection, each evening is designed as more than a dinner. It is an invitation to experience Italy through the lens of three chefs, where every plate carries a story of tradition, landscape, and belonging, all while remaining rooted in the peaceful atmosphere of Payangan.

A Curated Four Hands Culinary Series will take place every Friday in July at Amerta Restaurant, from 6.00 pm to 9.00 pm. The six-course dinner is priced at IDR 900,000++ per person, with limited seating available.
