Originally trained in Florence, Italy, Tayu built his culinary foundation in his hometown before managing Italian restaurants for several years. He later expanded his career internationally, working as an executive chef across Italy, France, China, and the Caribbean.

You will learn how to prepare fresh handmade pasta, traditional sauces, and classic Italian dishes while discovering professional cooking techniques used in high-end kitchens.

The experience is designed to be personal, interactive, and inspiring, combining food, storytelling, and a cinematic approach to cooking.
