Vecchio Convento præsenterer igen i år Chef Festival, hvor vi i Oktober har inviteret argentineren Jonathan Morales. Jonathan er the chef hos den Italienske Alfi's Restaurant I Paris. 5 retter mad inklusiv cocktail og vinmenu!
"I am Jonathan Morales, the chef at Alfi's restaurant in Paris, and my culinary journey spans a decade of experiences across different continents and cultures. My career began in Buenos Aires, where I initially honed my skills before moving to the Basque Country in Spain. There, I had the opportunity to work with the legendary Martín Berasategui, who holds 12 Michelin stars, and I gained invaluable experience in haute cuisine.
Upon returning to Argentina, I continued to develop my craft in several of Buenos Aires' most renowned restaurants. My desire for continuous growth led me to work in a bakery to broaden my experience and participate in restaurant openings, which further enriched my skill set.
Towards the end of 2021, an opportunity at Carbon in Uruguay reignited my passion for exploration and ultimately brought me back to France. Once in Paris, I was the chef at Carboni's for two years, where I had the opportunity to consolidate my culinary style and lead a kitchen team. Afterward, I took part in the opening of another Italian restaurant called Alfi's, where I am currently the chef.
Now based in Paris, I embrace a culinary philosophy focused on simplicity and authenticity. I strive to highlight the intrinsic flavors of the ingredients, believing that each component should make a significant contribution to a dish. Influenced by my Argentine roots, I have a deep reverence for cooking with fire, whether grilling meats or vegetables, as I believe it is a powerful tool to enhance flavors and create depth in my culinary creations".
