London’s famous department store Harrods is opening its doors, and kitchen, to Italy’s five best restaurants for five months from September until January 2015.

Hosting for one month each, the five Italian restaurants will provide London foodies with a special edit of their signature dishes. With 13 Michelin stars between them, the lauded line-up is Carlo Cracco’s Ristorante Cracco, Giorgio Pinchiorri and Annie Féolde’s Enoteca Pinchiorri, Gennaro Esposito’s Torre del Saracino, Enrico Crippa’s Piazza Duomo and Enrico and Roberto Cerea’s Da Vittorio.

Stelle di Stelle is presented in association with Identità Golose, a culinary organisation with a mission to promote the best of modern Italian cuisine and showcase regional culinary excellence worldwide.

Taking inspiration from their restaurant’s settings in Milan, Naples, Florence, Alba and Bergamo, the acclaimed chefs have used only the finest seasonal ingredients to offer diners a stellar experience of contemporary Italian cuisine in the heart of bustling Knightsbridge.

Each chef has created a four-course menu, which can be paired with Italian wines and beers. Menus will be priced at £110 for lunch and £160 for dinner (£130 and £180 respectively, with matching drinks), with one lunch and two dinner sittings each day.
