Get to know me better

Fine dining without the restaurant. I bring two decades of international Michelin and luxury hospitality experience directly into your home

I’ve spent over two decades cooking in some of the world’s most demanding kitchens — Michelin-starred restaurants, five-star hotels, private estates — across London, Moscow, Switzerland and New Zealand. That path taught me precision, creativity, and above all, how to read a table.

At Apsleys in London, working under Heinz Beck, I learned that fine dining is first and foremost an act of hospitality. At the Ritz-Carlton Moscow, I led a brigade serving heads of state and international clientele with no margin for error. In the Swiss Alps, at a one-star mountain restaurant, I learned what it means to cook with identity — where every dish tells a story about place.

What I bring to your home is exactly that: cooking with intent. Not performance, not theatre — just honest, precise, flavour-driven food, built around you. Whether it’s an intimate dinner for two or a gathering of twelve, I approach every table with the same care I gave to every service in every kitchen I’ve ever worked.

My roots are Italian, my training international, and my philosophy simple: great food is about the people sitting at the table.
