Chef Gabriel Mocanu
Private Chef In BrașovI am a chef with more than 8 years of experience in fine dining. I was born in Romania but all my life I have lived with my family in Rome. I have finished the cooking school Institute Professionale Alberghiero in Rome and I have a unique mix of ideas from the five countries where I worked in.
Since 2016, I am Head Chef at "The College of Extraordinary Experiences". Me and my team are creating story-driven culinary experiences for an annual design-thinking conference. This event gathers some of the most creative people in the world, around 150 guests from companies like Google, Lego, NASA or magicians, Hollywood producers, etc. Our concept is staged in a 13th century castle in Poland for five days.
I recently competed a culinary show in Romania, called "Chefi la cutite" , something like Masterchef, where I came out finalist. Because of the notoriety I decided to come back in Romania and founded "Goya Studio".
