Tiziana Francoforte
Gagini
Palermo
Tiziana Francoforte, born in 1987, trained as a Sous Chef at Gagini alongside Mauricio Zillo from 2020 to 2021, and was at the helm of Aja Mola until 2026.
The experience she has gained is immediately apparent, blending with a truly respectable Sicilian welcome, where professionalism runs parallel to the intimacy created by the Chef's visits to the table between courses, never invasive and above all genuine and attentive. It's not a ritual, it never feels contrived; the truth is that Tiziana cares, and truly does.
It's precisely this philosophy that has brought her back this time as Executive Chef at Gagini Restaurant.
It's authentic, local cuisine, with meticulous respect for the raw materials, made exclusively from local fish. The dishes draw on ancient Sicilian inspiration, yet they are all contemporary, undergoing a process that in no way alters the essence of the product, but rather elevates it to the level of haute cuisine.
Modernity, tradition, knowledge, skill, respect, and fun. These are the pillars of Tiziana Francoforte.
