The Climb
Executive Chef is the working brief here. Since 2018, Vincenzo di Lorenzo has held that post at Regina Bistecca in Florence, with responsibility not just for the menu but for keeping the kitchen coherent over time. In a city where restaurants are measured against local expectations every night, long tenure carries practical weight.

Today
At Regina Bistecca in Florence, the role of Executive Chef sits at the center of the operation, and Vincenzo di Lorenzo has occupied it since 2018. The job asks for authorship, but also for control of standards: the chef’s decisions shape how the kitchen works, how service holds together, and how the restaurant reads to regulars and first-time diners alike. The emphasis is on repetition done well, with daily discipline doing the work of identity.
Recognition
The key public recognition in Vincenzo di Lorenzo’s career is the founding responsibility attached to 2018: opening Regina Bistecca as its chef, managing it, and cooking the recipes that established its line from the start. That is the practical significance of the year. Opening a restaurant means setting the structure of service and the terms of the room, not just turning on the stove. For di Lorenzo, 2018 remains the reference point because it is when the restaurant’s first coherent expression was fixed under his direction.
