Chef Francesco Cusumano
Personal Chef In Florence
Get to know me better
Passionate about cooking, I love to excite with my dishes, transforming ingredients into unforgettable experiences for the palate.
For thirty years, I’ve been cooking emotions.
It all began with a spark ignited by the scents of my childhood, leading me on a passionate journey through flavors, traditions, and creativity.
I trained at a prestigious hotel school in Emilia-Romagna, a land of culinary excellence, but it was working in restaurants across Italy that truly shaped me. Experience after experience, I built a personal style that blends technique, instinct, and heart.
I love cooking for those who are moved by a beautifully crafted dish. For me, cooking isn’t just about preparing food—it’s about creating sensory experiences that touch the soul.
I work with fresh, seasonal, and authentic ingredients, always respecting their origin and uniqueness. Tradition is my foundation; innovation is my signature. Every dish is both a tribute to Italy and a personal story.
Whether in a home kitchen or a luxury restaurant, my goal remains the same: to amaze, to move, and to leave a lasting impression.
My cuisine is my heart. And every dish, a love story.
