More about me

For me, cooking is...

my passion and how I express myself. I love food, but I love the happiness and memories that food events create in people's lives

I learned to cook at...

home! It developed as a hobby, then I applied to MasterChef and spent time learning from the best chefs in quality restaurants.

A cooking secret...

is treating good ingredients simply and respecting centuries of human experience of cooking techniques and flavour pairings.
