Chef Nicolas Orlandi
Private Chef In Val De BagnesFood has always been a big component of my family’s tradition, and I started helping out grandma with cooking at a really young age. My passion for cooking developed over time, and after a couple years working as a ski instructor and doing kitchen help as extras, I decided to turn my professional career into restauration.
I started with a professional chef certification at Accademia Dieffe in Padova in 2016.
The course was followed by an internship at “Antica Osteria del Ponte”, a historical gourmet restaurant located in my hometown (3* from 1990 to 2000 with chef and now retired owner Ezio Santin, currently with chef Maurizio Gerola).
After a few other experiences working in restaurants (Barcalà Alassio, Tuktu Cervinia, Le Carrefour Verbier, La Nonna Verbier) I took my first mission as a private chef.
I have now over 5 years of experience as a private chef, two of whom on a year round contract with a local family residing in Verbier.
My idea of cookery is oriented towards a nutritional and nutraceutical conception of food, although as shown form menus I am also well fond of Italian tradition and tasteful menus.
I have some experience cooking ethnic foods (Mexican, some Japanese, Thai, American steakhouse style...).
