The Secret

For the name of his restaurant, Alessandro Breda was inspired by Caio Gellius, a prisoner with a fascinating history, as can be seen from the funeral urn found and preserved in the archaeological site. A former slave, was granted the status of a “freeman”, for merits achieved, as it was in use in Roman times. A story that recalls that of Proximo, the legendary character played by Oliver Reed in the film Gladiator set in 180 BC.
