Chef At Home in Bellevue Hill
Get to know me better
Valencian chef cooking paella on site. Real fire, real rice, no shortcuts.
Valencian-born chef, cooking paella the way it’s meant to be cooked.
On site, over real fire, with time and attention.
No catering trays, no shortcuts, no reheating.
I cook for people who enjoy the process as much as the food:
the pan in the middle, the smell of rice and smoke,
and a table that slowly fills up while the paella comes together.
Based in Bondi, available for small events, terraces and pop-ups.
If you think paella is more than just “rice with stuff”, we’ll get along.

More about me
For me, cooking is...
For me, cooking is a slow, hands-on process. It’s fire, patience and paying attention. It’s cooking on site, letting people see how things come togeth
I learned to cook at...
I learned to cook at home, eating paella almost every week of my life. In my grandparents’ house, where paella wasn’t a special occasion but a ritual.
A cooking secret...
My secret in the kitchen is practice and instinct. Cooking the same dish over and over teaches you things no recipe can explain.
