About Me
Over the years, I refined my passion for gastronomy in France and Switzerland, where I ran my own restaurant for five years.
It was during this journey that Cosmopol’EAT was born - a project that brings together gastronomic diversity, tradition and innovation, with the passion of offering authentic moments around the table.
Back in Portugal, I now dedicate myself to creating unique gastronomic experiences, offering private chef services and catering for both private and corporate events. I work with fresh, seasonal ingredients, always prioritising quality - from my own produce and from trusted local farmers. I adapt to each client’s wishes, designing personalised and memorable experiences.
Fluent in Portuguese, French, Spanish and English, I ensure a service that meets - and exceeds - your expectations.
I cannot wait to create the perfect event for you!
