Chef Vedran Beg

Private Chef In Koprivnica

I am a vegetarian for more then 10 years, only my love for cheese divides me for being vegan, so I cook how I am living my life. Despite of that fact I am also a professional Chef with a Master Chef degree from 2003, but that was just the beginning of the road. Now, more then ever I am eager to learn as much as I can handle because cooking is my life, my style, my way of thinking. My Family for whom I am cooking every day are my greatest inspiration and support, therefore I try, succed and produce healthy, enviroment-friendly dishes that comforts the soul and are at the same moment eye-catching.

Every day is a new challenge, that's why I know for sure that cooking is not a easy going job, if you want perfection.

So I am into it, because perfect is not good enough.

For me, cooking is...

...my big passion, I could not imagine one day without cooking.

I learned to cook at...

High school in Opatija, but really when I started to cook on exclusives Yachts in the Mediterranean.

A cooking secret...

The ingredients are sacred, you must respect them in every way.
