Chef Guilherme Tavares

Private Chef In Leeds

I have studied in Portugal in Estoril to become a chef.

One of the best schools in Portugal and been cooking since I was a little kid.

I am very passionate about my food and I will take care of my costumers as they are my family.

Eating is a way of pleasure and people should enjoy every moment.

I always aim to do my best and to make sure people have a great experience.

I worked on yachts as a chef and currently I work for a Premier league pro footballer as well as I do these type of services.

For me, cooking is...

I been doing it this all my life, I talk about food with a lot of passion and love.

I learned to cook at...

School and family. We had a restaurant back in the time so I used to be there all the time after school.

A cooking secret...

Treating the food with a lot of respect and love.
