Chef At Home in San José
Get to know me better
I specialise in crafting bespoke dining experiences that seamlessly blend classical refinement, regional authenticity, and modern wellness nutrition.
My culinary foundation is grounded in classical French technique through formal Le Cordon Bleu training. Over the course of my 20+ year career, I have translated this technical discipline into a versatile repertoire that spans multiple world culinary traditions:
Le Cordon Bleu Technique: Precision butchery, refined saucier craftsmanship, structured kitchen discipline, and flawless plating aesthetics.
Mediterranean Gastronomy: Bright, heart-healthy coastal traditions focusing on extra virgin olive oils, fresh seafood, sun-ripened produce, and vibrant aromatic herbs.
Artisanal Costa Rican Cuisine: Farm-to-table elevated local flavors utilizing indigenous ingredients—such as pejibayes, tropical root vegetables, fresh herbs, and heirloom grains—reimagined for fine dining.
Advanced Plant-Based & Vegan Mastery: Creative, nutrient-dense, and deeply satisfying vegan and plant-forward menus that cater to dietary wellness without compromising texture or depth of flavor.
