Piergiorgio Siviero

The name 1915 commemorates the year Siviero's grandfather Lazzaro — a refugee from Trieste when it was under Austrian control — opened the original tavern with his wife Elena. The restaurant carries a century of family history, and Piergiorgio's cooking honors both the Veneto ingredients and the Triestine-Adriatic heritage of his family roots.

Piergiorgio Siviero is the chef and co-owner of Lazzaro 1915 in Pontelongo (Padua), a restaurant named after his grandfather Lazzaro Siviero who founded the family establishment in 1915. Piergiorgio carries forward four generations of family cooking, combining Veneto tradition with creative contemporary technique.
