Celebrated Italian Chef Nino Di Costanzo, known for his visionary two-Michelin-starred restaurant Danì Maison in Ischia, is set to return to Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru. From February 13 to 19, 2025, Chef Nino will bring his unique gastronomic artistry to the iconic Blu Beach Club, situated in the heart of the Baa Atoll UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve.

A Culinary Fusion of Two Islands

Chef Nino's return marks a collaboration that goes beyond flavors, blending the traditions of his native Ischia with the rich bounty of the Maldives. Inspired by nature, this unique partnership sees Mediterranean culinary techniques harmonized with fresh produce from Landaa’s herb and vegetable gardens. The result is an exquisite cross-cultural dining experience, which, as Chef Nino explains, is “a meeting of diverse culinary traditions grounded in soil, sea, and surroundings.”

Limited-Time Residency and Year-Round Legacy

During his week-long residency, Chef Nino will personally curate and showcase a menu that embodies his distinctive style. Following this, Blu Beach Club will offer an exclusive year-round dining experience with a specially designed menu, available to just two tables of four guests each evening.

The collaboration extends beyond the plate, with members of Blu’s culinary team training at Danì Maison, ensuring the seamless infusion of Chef Nino’s expertise into the resort's gastronomic offerings.

Artistry Beyond Ingredients

For Chef Nino, every dish is more than just food—it is an experience, meticulously crafted to evoke emotion and amazement. His creative process begins months in advance, with every detail, from the choice of ingredients to the design of custom-made plates, carefully considered. His Venetian glass and Italian ceramic plates add a visual storytelling element that enhances the dining experience.

Landaa Giraavaru’s Regional Vice President and General Manager, Armando Kraenzlin, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership:
“We are thrilled to partner with one of the world’s greatest chefs at Blu. Collaborating with Chef Nino here at Landaa will not only offer an inspirational culinary experience to guests but expose our onsite team to unique career-advancing insights.”
