Welcome to DineWithJp — I’m Jeanpaul Cavalletti, the mind (and stomach) behind this food-focused journey.

Born and raised in Italy, I grew up in a country where food isn’t just a part of life — it is life. From early on, I was surrounded by bold flavours, time-honoured recipes, and a deep respect for ingredients. That upbringing didn’t just shape my taste — it sparked a lifelong obsession with discovering what makes food truly unforgettable.

My journey has taken me far beyond Italy. With an ever-growing hunger for new experiences, I’ve explored the food cultures of cities across Europe and beyond — from the refined plates of London’s fine dining scene to smoky pintxos bars in Spain and bustling market stalls in Southeast Asia. I believe great food can be found anywhere — in back-alley kitchens, roadside grills, and, yes, the occasional Michelin-starred restaurant.

DineWithJp is where I share those discoveries. This isn’t just about reviews — it’s about telling the story behind each dish, each cook, and each bite that leaves a lasting impression. Expect honest takes, sharp observations, and a love for food that never switches off.

Join me as I search for the bold, the unexpected, and the downright delicious. From the streets of Rome to the corners of Camden, let’s eat our way across the world — one plate at a time.
