REDUAN (RED) GARGOUBI

EXECUTIVE CHEF

He was born 28 years ago in Morocco and moved to Italy as a child. Like many children, his experience of cooking was by observing and helping his mother. What for most is a passing phase but for Reduan it has become his obsession and passion. A passion that led him to graduate with honors from Santa Chiara Hotel School in Stradella specialising in cuisine and pastries. After a series of internships at the best restaurants within the area, he landed in Sasseo (Santa Maria della Versa) where he stayed for close to five years, guided and inspired by Chef Silvano Vanzulli and Giorgio Lutrini.

In 2014 he joined the team of Chef Damiano Dorati, Cà Vegia restaurant in Salice Terme. His duties began as Sous Chef onto kitchen manager, however, for a talent like Reduan, the steps to his success were brief.

In 2020 while in search of new experiences he fell in love with the ambitious vision of the Corte del Lupo where he was welcomed with open arms, because we know how to recognize a talented dreamer when we meet one. Now Red and Corte’s cuisine are at the peak of the renaissance in the wonderful village of Golferenzo.

It is truly a unique synergy.

The journey has only just begun…

SEBASTIAN

SORCERER’s APPRENTICE

While only twenty years old, life has forced him to grow up quickly. He won us over with his contagious laugh and disarming smile. At the beginning he was our “puppy”, but over time he has shown willpower, maturity, passion and desire to constinually improve as a real chef would. We are proud to have him with us.

LUANA

BARLADY

Luana, queen of the bar and mom to Kristel. Creator of magic potions. You can expect the perfect cocktail, with a pinch of color and touch of fantasy … But this you already picked up on just by looking at her foto.

MATTEO

KING OF THE WINE CELLAR

Our wine keeper with the kindest of souls. Master of hospitality. Philosopher in his spare time. His presence is one of the main reasons while you always feel “at home” at Corte del Lupo.

FEDERICA

LADY OF THE FRONT ROOM

She is the tireless engine of Corte del Lupo. Mother of Edo and Carlotta, pilaster of our dining room and now also the brains and heart of Bottega del Lino (the small treasure chest where you can buy all the products you taste at Corte). Practically she is our personal Wonder Woman but with the sensitivity of a fawn.
