The Hive
backWelcome to the new Luigia Academy
Published: 07. June 2021
Luigia Academy opened its doors on Saturday 5th June on The Hive! This innovative concept brings together under one roof a restaurant offering authentic, high-quality Italian cuisine, a training centre offering Italian cooking courses, a culinary experimentation laboratory and a research centre on the principles of the circular economy.
Luigia Academy is surrounded by the best specialists in the field of the circular economy in order to study, test and implement solutions to reduce the environmental impact of their activity as restaurateurs, both in terms of energy, logistics and waste management.
In order to collaborate with local producers, Luigia Academy is also building a large vegetable garden that will supply the restaurant, as well as the Saturday market, which will offer baskets of fruit and vegetables for sale. The green treatment of the roof has created a biodiversity zone visible from all the buildings on the site.
