## Biography[edit]

### Education[edit]

He studied journalism at the University of Salvador (Buenos Aires, Argentina) and worked as a journalist for El Cronista, a daily newspaper, for 7 years[8].

He then wrote music reviews for Rolling Stone magazine but, still looking for his path, he decided to go on a road trip through Latin America, Europe and Africa. He came back with the desire to pursue a career as a Chef.

Self-taught and from the fourth generation of cook established in Switzerland, Germany, Italy and Spain, he learned to cook at his family restaurant run by his mother and then broadened his knowledge during his many trips around the world.

Back from Africa, he adopted the "turban" which would never leave him during his public appearances and which would quickly become his emblem.

He had 3 children from a first relationship and then a 4th with his current partner Tâmara Castelo[9].
