Cultivated By Caryn w.guest Francesco Zimone, L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele

April 03, 2025 • Caryn Antonini

On this week's episode, host Caryn Antonini is joined by Francesco Zimone, Owner and CEO of L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele, which has four locations, Hollywood, Santa Barbara, Belmont Shore and New York City, and his latest restaurant, Florence Osteria and Piano Bar. Hailing from Naples, Italy, Francesco worked for most of adult life in finance, yet after nearly two decades of a successful career in the United States, he longed for the sense of community that he felt in the piazzas of his hometown. Seeking that sense of connection inspired him to leave the world of finance to become a restaurateur where he has designed, conceptualized and captured the Italian way of living through his establishments.
