I cooked and ran kitchens at high level in 4 different countries. Fine dining and Michelin guide experience in critically acclaimed restaurants taught me how to select the finest ingredients and design menus tailored to your taste. As a happy foodie, I love to share my passion and bring to your home (with a hint of French flair!) the best products Portugal and Algarve have to offer. I chose the private chef and caterer path as an alternative and more open way to be a restaurateur, the restaurant that adapts itself to you.

For me, cooking is...

More than about food…It is about sharing

I learned to cook at...

In various Michelin rated restaurants in Paris and London

A cooking secret...

Is such a simple thing, it is all about love!
