As a child I unloaded the boxes of fish that arrived with the Ponza lamps every day on the Terracina pier. Then I was a fisherman, even freediving. Later I opened some fishmongers and then I came full circle when I realized that for a woman of the 2000s, cooking fish is a nuisance. So I opened the fish tavern, Assunta Madre and now my latest and definitive project that bears my name, Johnny Micalusi Ristorante.
