Brazilian & Italian Cooking Classes

About me

The passion for cooking is old, started early next to my maternal grandmother watching the preparation of the “moquecas capixabas”, in Vitória, ES, Brazil. Later I started to help an uncle at the weekend barbecues. I had the opportunity from early on to attend good bars, restaurants and to be next to excellent cooks, making the good taste developed.

Being a cook was not always fancy and it was not easy to tell this to parents who dreamed of a diplomat son. I turned my mind and my way, but I always remained passionate, studious, curious about the cooking subject. Thank god!!

I left early in Brazil for an international experience and went to work in a hotel further enhancing my pleasure for gastronomy and entertainment.

In short, I got into the business and spent a good 20 years among pizzeria, bakery, bars, restaurants, nightclubs, consultancies, classes, journalism, etc. in Brazil, USA, Italy and Portugal.

I have been in 29 countries, 244 cities and I have lived in more than 30 different places among cities, states and countries, being 3 continents.

In addition to cooking, I join my family, travel, beach and running as passions.
