i. Biography
Domingo Schingaro has been chef at Due Camini in di Savelletri since 2016, and the work there has been built around seasonal rhythm, local ingredients, and varieties that are often overlooked. The cooking is rooted in the landscape around Savelletri rather than in imported reference points, with the region setting the terms of the plate as much as the kitchen does.
Coming Up
Chef at Due Camini since 2016, Domingo Schingaro has held the role in a way that favors pace set by the season over pace set by the market. The kitchen’s language comes from what the area gives, including ingredients tied to the local landscape and produce that does not always stay in circulation. At Due Camini, that approach reads as discipline: work from what is present, and let the calendar decide the frame.
Where They Are Now
The cooking remains shaped by seasonality, place, and varieties that might otherwise be left behind. At Due Camini, Schingaro’s kitchen keeps Savelletri in view without making a display of it; the connection is carried through the ingredients themselves and the way they are used. That makes the restaurant’s identity legible in trade terms: local supply, seasonal timing, and a clear line back to the area’s traditions. The restraint in the work is part of its structure. Schingaro does not build the menu around novelty for its own sake; he builds it around what the land can support at that moment, and around the produce that holds the memory of the region even when it is not the obvious choice. The result is cooking that relies on consistency of method and attention to what is available, with the kitchen’s logic staying close to the ground. Since 2016, Schingaro’s place at Due Camini in di Savelletri has been defined by continuity and adjustment in equal measure. The landscape remains present in the work, but so does the discipline required to translate it into a kitchen that changes with the season. That is the core of the role: keeping the cooking tied to Savelletri through ingredients, timing, and a practical sense of place.
