Chef Ivo Mazzon of Joey's Cafe in Wynwood is from Roncade, Treviso, in Northern Italy, close to Venice. He studied there for five years at a hospitality institute and has been in Miami since April, 2003. He says "I love it here. We're trying to make something special to create an identity for a desperate spot in Miami. About cooking I'm dreaming night and day...about simple dishes, but with my own special touch. For example, I prefer to make a deconstructed lasagna."
