Chef Claudio Pascale

I’ve been in the culinary industry for over 20 years, my career started at the age of 16 whilst completing catering qualifications. I took on various positions in pubs, hotels and restaurants where my career advanced to the point of managing the kitchen. During this period I also graduated from Leeds Metropolitan University where I obtained degree in Fine Arts because art was always a strong passion of mine.

A thirst for new challenges saw me take on a private chef role in 2011. From then onwards I continued to work as a private chef for different clients and families across Europe, USA and Russia. 

With half of my family being Italian, my cuisine specialises in Mediterranean flavours and techniques, it’s in my blood. However, I also have a passion to create new dishes using culinary traditions from various regions. I have a strong knowledge of classical and contemporary food trends, healthy diet practices, designing and planning balanced menus according to the personal client dietary requirements
