What Allora is

Philosophy

Allora is not simply an Italian restaurant. It is a place where an outstanding product matters more than a complicated recipe.

“Great food starts with a great product.”
Basque Country San Sebastián

The product is the hero

The plainness of pintxos culture: anchovies, seafood, olive oil and fish off the grill that need nothing added.

Nordics Noma · Barr

Season and precision

Respect for the season, fermentation, house-made vinegars, long-simmered stocks and Latvian vegetables in their own time.

Italy Pasta · Olio

A culture of ingredients

Pasta made in house, olive oil, cheeses, and the belief that a few excellent ingredients beat a long recipe.

Every ingredient has a job to do, and every sauce lifts the main product rather than burying it.

The chef

Three kitchens, one hand

The author of Allora's culinary concept. The road began in Riga, went on through Copenhagen and the Basque Country, and came back to Latvia with a single conviction: the product matters more than the recipe.

The start · Riga

Bibliotēka No.1

The foundations of classical European cooking and the working culture of a fine-dining kitchen.

Stage · Copenhagen

Noma

A restaurant repeatedly named the best in the world. A different way of seeing product, seasonality and fermentation.

Sous chef · Copenhagen

Barr

A modern Nordic restaurant built by part of the Noma team. Working with fire, meat and stocks.

Sous chef · Michelin Bib Gourmand

Silberbauers Bistro

Proof that serious cooking can be precise, relaxed and easy to understand.

Inspiration · Basque Country

San Sebastián

Pintxos culture, and a lasting obsession with anchovies, olive oil and fish on the grill.

Today · Riga

Allora & Smor Modern Bistro

Two restaurants with one idea: an outstanding product, precise technique and honest flavour.

“Every ingredient has a job to do.”

Andreola Valdobbiadene

Fine bubbles and white flowers from the hills of Valdobbiadene. The way an evening starts.

Austrian Pet-Nat

Playful, alive and slightly unruly — exactly what a natural wine should be.

White03

Ca’ dei Frati

Elegant Lugana whites from a legendary producer: mineral, precise, with a long finish.
