Explanation:
I was 17 when my manager, Ion Tiriac, took me to San Lorenzo on Beauchamp place in Knighsbridge for the first time. It was the night before my first wimbledon quarter finals, many tennis people went there, the food was excellent, and it immediately felt like home. I went back on the night before the final, ordered a T-bone steak and won the championship.
In 1989 I decided to rent a house in Wimbledon rather than commute daily into central London. When Ghigo, the son of San Lorenzo's owner, took over San Lorenzo Fuoriporta in Wimbledon the following year it became my home away from home, my canteen, my office. In fact every announcement I have ever made, like my retirement, was done from this room.
Having dinner here was like a routine, a match preparation. We would talk about match tactics for the next day. Tennis players are superstitious - if you have a meal and you win you want to order exactly the same thing before the next match, so it better be good! Tennis players need a lot of carbohydrates so menus can become very repetitive: pasta every night with a light sauce. For starters I would always have mozzarella, avocado and tomato, then spaghetti napoli with tomatoes and olives. My treat would be a lemon sorbet.
I still order mozzarella, avocado and tomato, but I've overdosed on carbs so these days, for mains, I go more for meat - usually tagliata alla Robespierre (rare beef prepared with balsamic vinegar olive oil and Worcester sauce). I have many great memories here, from my sons' christening lunches to several unforgettable World Cup football matches. For the last Brazil/Germany final, I organised a big lunch for my compatriots. Earlier, some Brazilians had asked Ghigo if they could hang a Brazilian flag outside the restaurant and he had said no, because of the large German party that had congregated in the upstairs room. Suddenly someone realised that an enormous German flag was flying out of the front window, so when Ghigo found out, he told the Brazilians to go and put their flag up, too. Brazil won that year.
Noah, my first-born, has a pizza named after him. It happened when he was very little and, like all children, couldn't make up his mind what to choose and didn't really want to eat. Ghigo solved the problem by creatinga pizza with mozzarella and Noah's favourite salami and then put it on the menu - hence the Pizza Noah. What's extraordinary to me is that the Who's Who of the tennis world always congregates here and nobody makes a big deal. Agassi and Brooke Shields would come often and I remember her sneaking into the kitchen to ask for a pizza. Nobody would make a fuss.
Things haven't changed for me here, it's still my home-away-from-home. No other restaurant has felt like this to me. This year was the 20th anniversary of my first championship victory and I rented the same house that I had when I used to play, so we either ate here or ordered San Lorenzo takeaways.
