ABOUT
I have spent almost four decades in professional kitchens, but over the years I have learned that great hospitality is about much more than food.
It is about understanding the people around the table, the place they have chosen to spend their time, and the kind of experience they want to remember.
In Tuscany, I cook for private villas, families and groups of friends — from intimate dinners to multi-day stays and celebrations.
My cooking is rooted in the Mediterranean and guided by the ingredients around me. Exceptional local produce, thoughtful sourcing, simple preparations and food made to be shared.
I don’t believe in complexity for its own sake. I believe in experience, attention to detail and taking good care of people.
One moment. One group of guests.
Our complete attention. Our absolute A-game.

More about me
For me, cooking is...
A way to take care of people. Great ingredients, simplicity and generosity, brought together around one table.
I learned to cook at...
Le Cordon Bleu and École Lenôtre in Paris — followed by almost four decades of cooking, travelling and learning from the Mediterranean.
A cooking secret...
Knowing when to do less. Start with exceptional ingredients, respect them, and let their natural character lead the cooking.
