Get to know me better

A chef driven by creativity and ambition, championing sustainable, seasonal, root-to-tip cooking from fork to earth

Hello, I’m Chef Nico. My culinary journey is rooted in a deep respect for the earth and its natural bounty. I believe in using locally farmed and homegrown produce, ensuring that every dish not only supports sustainability but also helps reduce our carbon footprint. ​​

This approach allows me to create menus that are as much about the environment as they are about flavour. Inspired by the raw elements of fire, nature, and the changing seasons, my cooking embraces the beauty of foraging and working with what is fresh and at its peak.

The food I prepare is a reflection of my passion for both tradition and innovation, with every dish telling its own unique story. I strive to create more than just meals – I aim to craft lasting memories. For me, each plate is a narrative, a connection between the ingredients, the season, and the people enjoying it.
