Chef Ciro Sieno
Born in Naples in 1987, JRE chef Ciro Sieno trained at IPSSAR Luigi De Medici and built his career through roles in Naples, the Amalfi Coast, and the Romagna Riviera, before moving into fine dining and advanced training with chefs including Terry Giacomello and Vincenzo Guarino. He also deepened his work on bread and leavened products with Oscar Pagani. After key experience in the Reggio Emilia area, including Ca’ Matilde, he developed his own kitchen identity at Enigma: modern Italian cooking that connects Campania and Emilia, guided by careful ingredient choice and strong technical control.
“Perfection lives in the details, starting with the raw ingredient.”

Art is part of the experience too, from Futurist tapestries by Balla and Severini to contemporary pieces chosen by the team. In the kitchen, JRE chef Ciro Sieno brings a modern Italian approach that connects Emilia and his native Campania.
