Chef Noam Kostucki
Private Chef In Tamarindo
Get to know me better
My home is the #1 restaurant in Guanacaste on TripAdvisor (HiR Fine Dining) - I also create menus as private chef for breakfasts, lunches and dinners
OpenTable selected one of my dishes for their list of "25 dishes to travel around the world for" from 40,000 restaurants worldwide
My home in the jungle has been #1 of the 1,000+ restaurants in the province of Guanacaste on TripAdvisor for 3 years in a row
I'm not a trained chef and never worked in a kitchen before starting HiR Fine Dining.
In 2018, I was invited to cook a 7 course dinner in Los Angeles and New York.
In 2019, I cooked 7 course dinners in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Seattle, Missouri, Minneapolis, Wisconsin, and Atlanta.
In 2019 I also published my first book about cooking "Accessible Fine Dining" where I share my learning from home cook to fine dining chef.
More about me
For me, cooking is...
For me, food is family. Food is for people who love each other to get together and share stories. Food is culture. Food is learning. Food is life.
I learned to cook at...
By myself. I started cooking at university while studying civil engineering. Then I was self employed and cooked for myself for about 10 years.
A cooking secret...
Combining worlds. I traveled over 40 countries and lived in 9. I ate in some of world's most expensive restaurants and in some of the poorest families
