Dinner in Pavarotti’s House With the Mayor of Modena

It happened that last night I was at dinner at the house of Luciano Pavarotti sitting next to the mayor of Modena and the head of the city’s chamber of commerce. Pavarotti’s digs, in the countryside outside Modena where he died in 2007, provided the setting and his personal cook Cesare manned the kitchen.

16 September 2011 in Emilia-Romagna.
