“Cooking is my first Love”

ABOUT
"I love the smells and flavours that are released in the kitchen when the ingredients come together in harmony"
Welcome to my kitchen! I am Francesco Cusumano, a private chef with a passion for gastronomy that has its roots in the Sicilian culinary tradition, but has evolved thanks to the experience lived in the splendid Tuscany.
In my professional career I have had the opportunity to work with great Chefs thanks to whom I have refined techniques and learned secrets. The experiences in the kitchens of Tuscany, Emilia Romagna and Trentino Alto Adige have allowed me to discover flavors and traditions that I still bring into my kitchen today.
My mission is to offer a unique culinary experience, combining typical traditional dishes with an innovative touch. Each dish I prepare tells a story, made of carefully selected ingredients to guarantee the highest quality and flavor. I firmly believe that cooking should be a complete sensory experience, capable of evoking emotions and memories.
Whether it is an intimate dinner, a special event or an exclusive lunch, I am here to transform every occasion into an unforgettable moment. My philosophy is based on the art of receiving, where every detail is taken care of with passion and dedication.
Contact me to learn more about how I can make your next event an extraordinary culinary experience.
