[Show as slideshow] Chef Vincenzo Scarmiglia is one of our favorite dudes in food. Castelmagno cheese might be our favorite cheese in the world. When we saw it on Sirio ’s menu, you might say our little fermented-curd-lovin’ heart skipped a beat. (When we saw a wheel of it at Peck in Milan years ago, that’s just what happened.)
