Chef Aleksandra Lazarova

My name is Aleksandra Lazarova and I've been cooking professionally for 7 years now, but been around the kitchen since a little girl. I studied culinary arts at the HRC Culinary Academy Bulgaria and since I've worked in restaurants in Amsterdam, Washington DC and Vienna.

My last employment was in one of the best restaurants in town , Dstrikt in The Ritz-Carlton Vienna, where I have cooked for many celebrities and world leaders, such as Prince, Tom Cruise, Robbie Williams, and Vladimir Putin, among others. Most of them, like me, preferred rustic, heart-warming, comfort food.

I believe that a great meal is one that is both delicious and nourishing. This is why home cooked meals are my favorite. Home cooking gives you the feeling and warmth of happiness and home no matter where you are. Made with love, and enriched with plenty of nutrients for your body, mind, and soul.
