Glass Hostaria

by Chef Cristina Bowerman

Glass Hostaria has been selected in the MICHELIN Guide Italy 2025.

Glass Hostaria was born in 2004 in the middle of Trastevere, one of the most traditional, antique area in Rome. Glass is headed by Michelin Star Chef Cristina Bowerman. Among the small vicolos, the traditional atmosphere that Trastevere profuses, you can easily spot Glass as it represents an exception to the rule: modern, brave and surprising. Glass offers a modern approach to Italian cuisine without ever forgetting to be in the heart of Rome, in the center of Italy. When you are tired of traditional carbonara, cacio e pepe and scottadito, there’s Glass with new and unique approach to ingredients and dishes. New and comforting at the same time. Chef Bowerman is constantly raising the bar with new and innovative techniques and ingredients that she englobes in her research, passion, experiences during her trips around the world.

A special dinner with Google and Azione contro la fame

An important event united two themes that are very close to our hearts: the fight against hunger and malnutrition and the battle against gender inequality were the two central topics of the charity dinner organized by Google Italia and Action Against Hunger on March 7, 2024 in Milan. We had the opportunity to discuss the commitment that has always distinguished our work and at the same time we spent an evening made of smiles and moments of sharing and closeness, supporting together the most just causes.
