Meet the Chef…

Marco Boscaini - Prego!

Since its launch in 2003, Prego Italian Restaurant, located on Koh Samui's lively Chaweng Beach, has been the talk of the town… or island…

Touted as Samui's 'coolest restaurant', it's a pretty hot number! Not just the contemporary decor, feng-shui water features and the easy-going ambience, or the friendly attentive wait-staff make for such a splendid Prego experience, but 'mamma mia' the food is fantastic!

If you've ever spent the evening at Prego, you're sure to have already seen the genius behind the authentic Italian menu - Chef Marco Boscaini.

Born in Varallo Sesia, Northern Italy, Chef Marco was practically raised in the kitchen! With his delightful character and friendly disposition, Chef Marco enjoys interacting with customers and adds flair and flavour to every occasion.

Italian through and through, his love affair with Thailand began in 1996, where he has been ever since, helping spread the taste for and popularity of authentic Italian cuisine, often with a creative twist…

A cheerful guy for whom life is simply 'fantastic'! His mottos in life, as in work, are 'always try your best' and equally importantly 'care about what you do'. He feels the most important factor in running a restaurant, as successful as Prego, is 'great teamwork to achieve the ultimate in guest satisfaction', he says 'make every guest feel that they are special'. Being a successful and creative chef he attributes to creating new ideas from traditional recipes and not being afraid to listen to customer feedback.

When he's not in the kitchen (which is not too often!) he's busy being a lover, not only of literature and music, but also in the true Italian sense of the word! Viva Italia!
