Steam: our way of cooking
Healthy, with a side of flavor.
Because the way we cook makes all the difference.
At Il Bistrò di Lory & Luca, steam isn’t just a cooking method, but a conscious choice that reflects our approach to food. Our cuisine respects ingredients, preserves their nutritional value and puts people’s wellbeing first, without compromising on the pleasure of good food.
We chose steaming because it best reflects our philosophy: natural, clean, balanced and inclusive.
Why we cook with steam
Steam cooking is a choice rooted in respect for food and the people who eat it. It allows us to preserve the nutritional properties of ingredients, limiting the loss of vitamins, minerals and natural flavours without altering the ingredients’ structure.
Unlike other cooking methods, steaming requires no added fat and doesn’t force the ingredient, but gently guides it towards its natural balance.
The result is lighter, more digestible and naturally delicious food, with every dish retaining its nutritional value and authentic flavour.
It’s a cuisine for anyone who wants to eat healthily every day and mindfully, without giving up the pleasure of a satisfying, complete dining experience.
Steaming is only effective when you start with quality ingredients.
That’s why we select fresh, seasonal, carefully checked ingredients, favouring supply chains that respect the product and its origins.
We carefully prepare vegetables, grains, proteins and doughs without overworking them, bringing out each ingredient’s authentic flavor. Steam doesn’t mask—it enhances. It doesn’t conceal—it reveals.
That’s how healthy eating becomes a truly delicious experience, not a sacrifice.
The value of
green ingredients
Wellbeing you can feel,
after every meal
We believe food has a direct impact on how we feel every day. That’s why our steaming-focused kitchen is designed to deliver energy, lightness and lasting wellbeing, avoiding overly heavy meals and supporting more natural digestion.
An ideal choice for anyone living a healthy lifestyle, looking for balanced dishes, with specific dietary needs or simply wanting to take care of themselves at the table—because for us, eating well also means feeling good afterwards.
A transparent, open kitchen
Our kitchen is open because we believe in transparency. Seeing how a dish is prepared, steamed and served helps build trust with everyone who chooses us.
Steam is therefore more than just a cooking method: it’s a clear expression of care, expertise and respect for food and people.
