The person behind the cooking
More than a chef. A trusted presence.
More than two decades of experience, devoted to a moment that is entirely yours.
My career has taken me through five-star hotels, private clubs, restaurants and exclusive residences. It has taught me that great service begins long before anyone sits down at the table: it begins with listening.
Discretion, flexibility and personal attention define how I work. At eclectic.cooking, I bring experience and culinary direction, alongside a team that shares the same high standards.
The journey
One journey. Many perspectives on the table.
1998 — 2013
The foundations
Five-star hospitality, private clubs and leadership roles across Spain and London. Technique, discipline and an international perspective.
2014 — 2018
Private cooking
Villas in Ibiza, international clients and increasingly personal menus. Cooking with an understanding of each household’s preferences and rhythm.
2020 — 2025
Essencia
Founding and managing the restaurant at Can Vistabella Boutique Resort: concept, kitchen, purchasing, operations and guest experience.
SINCE 2025
A personal commitment
Full-time private chef work, long-standing client relationships, international assignments and exclusive events prepared entirely on site.
Essencia · 2020 — 2025
Creativity at the table. Precision behind every detail.
Creating and running Essencia at Can Vistabella Boutique Resort meant bringing a complete vision to life: from the concept and menus to kitchen organisation, purchasing and every guest’s experience.
This chapter unfolded during particularly challenging years for hospitality, while I continued working with my private clients. Today, that broader perspective informs every service I prepare.
Your space. Your rhythm.
The experience starts where you are.
I prepare each menu in your villa, residence or event space. Cooking on site preserves freshness, allows flexibility and makes the service personal.
A chef in your home
Daily, weekly or longer stays, tailored to the way you live.
Private dinners
Bespoke menus and themed experiences, each with its own character.
Celebrations
Thoughtfully planned weddings, retreats and private gatherings.
Designed around you
Choose a concept from the catalogue or a menu created around your preferences.
How I work
Listen. Design. Deliver.
01 / LISTEN
Understand what matters
Your tastes, culture, dietary needs and the atmosphere you want to create.
02 / DESIGN
Bring it all together
The menu, pace, setting and service are all part of one experience.
03 / DELIVER
Be present
Calm execution on site, precise timing and the flexibility to respond to each moment.
From Ibiza, beyond the island
Trust travels too.
Ibiza is my base. Projects and relationships take me further.
Uruguay, Italy, Germany, Amsterdam and London are part of my international journey. In 2026, a twenty-day stay in Punta del Este once again brought my cooking into a client’s home.
Every assignment is arranged personally, according to the dates, destination and service requirements.
