Gino D'Acampo
Italian chef Gino D'Acampo is an ITV favourite. His flavour-packed recipes are simple to make, and his energy in the kitchen is infectious!
Gino D'Acampo's TV career began when he was invited to shoot a series for Great Food Live and he has appeared on many shows since, including Ready Steady Cook, Chef v Britain, This Morning and Let's Do Lunch ... With Gino and Mel. He was also a regular guest on Saturday Cooks in 2006 and 2007. His TV success led to the release of well-received cookbooks Fantastico, Buonissimo, The Italian Diet and Gino's Pasta. Born in Naples, Southern Italy, he inherited his love of cooking from his grandfather who was a head chef. Before moving to London in 1995, he travelled all over Europe and was head chef at Sylvester Stallone's Mambo King restaurant in Marbella, Spain. Once in the UK, he set up Bonta Italia, a company which sources and supplies traditional Italian products. Gino's recipes are a firm favourite with fans of ITV's food shows. Easy to cook and full of big flavours, Gino's dishes are perfect to recreate at home.
