Leonardo-I-Profile

Short bio

Chef Leonardo’s career has let him cook for people he has always admired and never dreamed of knowing personally, including Naomi Campbell, Roberto Carlos, Ivete Sangalo, amongst others. It’s his perspective that a good meal is one of the greatest pleasures one can experience in life, whether it’s part of a special moment like a wedding or just an everyday occasion. And being able to be a part of that moment – the experience of eating – brings him immense joy and satisfaction.

Bio

Chef Leo possesses an eagerness to be a part of unforgettable moments in people’s lives, and to make them feel special, has been Chef Leonardo’s biggest motivation in his career. He puts his absolute best in every dish he cooks, and even more so when it’s part of a special occasion. There’s no better sound or energy for Chef Leonardo than the moment that people put his food in their mouth and go, ‘wow’.

Sincerely, nothing in particular. Whenever I reach or exceed my expectations, I am proud. I always try to impart my best efforts in every dish I create.

    Sonia Fenton
  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chef Leo was great, and the food was brilliant. Though the prior organisation wasn’t ideal. I’d filled in the form online but didn’t get a confirmation of what had been selected (which is difficult to remember when it’s done a few months before the event). Also, due to that, I had a calendar invitation for 6 pm but Chef Leo had been told to get there for 5 pm and we weren’t home. Besides that everything was great.

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ All of our guests were pleasantly surprised to be greeted by and served by the professional Chefin crew. Plus, it was just a relief to leave our catering stress to gorgeous Chef Leo, who left our guests with very happy and very full bellies.

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chef Leo was delightful. A beautifully prepared meal. Would have liked the courses a little more spaced out – they were served close together. Kitchen was left spotless.
