Chef Damian Flo

Chef At Home In Aguanga

Buongiorno! I am a 25-year-old Italian young man who grew up in Madrid, Spain for over 10 years. Cooking has been my passion since I was 15 years old. The love for cooking runs in my family. My father, who has taught me everything I know, is Chef Fabio Javier. He has several decades of experience and has been following my progress.

As a young Italian chef who has spent a significant part of my life in Spain, I have been fortunate to experience the best of both culinary worlds. The fusion of Italian, Spanish, and Mediterranean cuisines has greatly influenced my cooking style and has become the essence of my culinary identity.

Growing up in Italy, I was immersed in a rich culinary heritage that celebrated fresh, seasonal ingredients and simple yet bold flavors. Italian cuisine taught me the importance of using high-quality ingredients as the foundation of any dish. From homemade pasta to traditional risottos, I learned the art of creating dishes that are both comforting and satisfying.

However, my time in Spain exposed me to a vibrant and lively food culture that was distinctly different from what I had known. Spanish cuisine opened my eyes to the world of an incredible variety of flavors. The Spanish emphasis on communal dining and sharing plates inspired me to create dishes that encourage conviviality and exploration of flavors.

The Mediterranean region, with its shared coastline and cultural exchange, played a crucial role in shaping my cooking style. The abundant use of olive oil, aromatic herbs, and fresh vegetables became the backbone of my culinary repertoire. The Mediterranean diet, known for its health benefits and delicious simplicity, instilled in me a love for wholesome ingredients and mindful cooking.

Today, my cooking style is a harmonious blend of these influences. I combine the passion and attention to detail from my Italian heritage with the vibrancy and creativity inspired by Spanish cuisine. I prioritize fresh, seasonal ingredients and strive to let their natural flavors shine through in each dish. I embrace the use of olive oil, garlic, and herbs to enhance the taste profiles of my creations.

Whether I'm preparing a traditional Italian pasta dish with a Spanish twist or experimenting with a fusion of flavors in a Mediterranean-inspired seafood paella, I aim to transport diners on a culinary journey that celebrates the best of both worlds. I believe that food has the power to connect people and cultures, and through my cooking, I hope to share the beauty and richness of Italian, Spanish, and Mediterranean cuisine with others.

So, come and join me at the table, where the vibrant colors, bold flavors, and warm hospitality of Italy and Spain merge to create a unique culinary experience that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you with a newfound appreciation for the art of food. Buon appetito! ¡Buen provecho!

For me, cooking is...

My goal is to prepare good meals and offer my passion and ambition to families by contributing with an open and constructive mentality.

I learned to cook at...

I learned to cook "on site", in a totally homemade way and respecting the traditions. I was trained by my father, the professional Chef Fabio Javier.

A cooking secret...

To always have a tasty "sofritto" and "brodo", but the secret ingredients are passion and lots of love!

Chef Damian was great. Good communication, good food, good clean up.

Chef Damien was amazing.

Wonderful experience and amazing food!

Wonderful. 5 Stars!

The food was absolutely amazing, and the flavors were outstanding! The level of professionalism from Chef Damian and their team truly impressed us. They made the entire experience memorable, and I can't recommend them highly enough!

This was an incredible, 5-star experience from start to finish. Chef Damian and his assistant Susana were wonderful. They were on time, organised, friendly, and professional. Communication prior to our event was efficient and helpful. The most important aspect of hiring a chef is without a doubt the food. And Chef Damian didn’t disappoint ! Every single dish was delicious. He accommodated allergies and preferences. Once the meal was over, the kitchen was cleaner than when they arrived. We are so thankful for the entire experience and would recommend Chef Damian without hesitation.

Chef Damian and his assistant were so incredible! We had great communication with him to create the perfect meal for our party. We had a guest with dietary restrictions and he created a special dish for her so she could enjoy an amazing meal. Every single course was so tasty. They set everything up for us to literally just show up at the table and eat. They also did the whole cleaning up after and left our kitchen in pristine conditions. Truly a memorable experience!

Chef Damian did an amazing job! Everyone loved the food. He spaced the dishes out to give us time to digest and socialize with the guests at our wedding. He interacted with us and the guest, explained the dishes, and was extremely well spoken. I highly recommend him.

Chef Damian was amazing! He was on time, very professional and the food was AMAZING. He had an extensive menu to choose from and he customized the meal for food allergies. He also explained every dish and cleaned everything up after. Would definitely use him again and recommend to anyone looking for a private chef in SoCal!

Wonderfull experience, would highly recommend.

Will be recommending Chef Damian and Susana to all friends and locals of the LA/Desert/Orange County area. Damian was punctual and responsive within the TakeaChef messaging platform. My party was amazed with the way they worked together in the kitchen, like a well-oiled machine. The food was divine: fell in love with the linguine. I’m so thrilled I found this service and that we were fortunate enough to be fed by such talented people. Thank you!

Damien and his GF were absolutely amazing. Such sweet people and made us such a delicious 4 course meal at a great price. The kitchen was cleaner after they left then when they arrived. Give them a shot, you won’t be disappointed!!!

Chef Damian was amazing. Everyone was so impressed by the thoughtful menu and overall experience. Our group had many dietary restrictions and he went above and beyond to accommodate everyone. He was very open in communication and overall created such an amazing experience for the bachelorette trip!

Cannot begin to express our appreciation for Chef Damian! Not only was the food delicious, but his professionalism and attention to detail were on another level. We could not stop raving about each dish, which got increasingly more yummy with every subsequent course. Not only did he prepare everything to order, he cleaned up the kitchen and left it spotless!!! I highly recommend Chef Damian and will definitely use him for another private event if the occasion arises.

Damian and his staff were beyond expectation. We asked for breakfast every morning and in addition to yogurt and granola, he prepared an egg and meat dish or some other breakfast item. The last morning included caviar toast!! He was prompt, personable, creative and attentive to our requests, i.e. someone who preferred their eggs well cooked. We enjoyed the two dinners he prepared more than those at some of the Michelin rated restaurants we visited. I was a bit concerned about hiring a private chef sight unseen but Damian was perfect.

Chef Damian provided us with a fantastic meal. He was able to use the cookware in our Airbnb. He was very professional and the courses were paced well. Our entire party was impressed. After he cleaned up and the kitchen was spotless.

Chef Damian was great. Good communication, good food, good clean up.
