A great adventure experimenting with modern techniques and local products influenced by French cuisine. Our chef, leads one of Chile's most influencing restaurants at Sheraton Santiago Hotel & Convention Center.
"My professional career began in this hotel and luckily I could learn from the different areas of the kitchen. Thanks to the influence of great mentors, I have been able to continue with the great legacy of the El Cid restaurant."
Her priority at the moment of making new proposals and preparations, is to work with local products and combine the best attributes of each area of the country
"My goal is to continue to delight with our preparations, to be able to highlight what Chile has to offer and thus spread the word internationally."
She confesses that she is fulfilling a dream and one of her greatest professional challenges. The years of work at the hotel have allowed her the time to meet and detect great talents in her kitchen.
"Together we are one, when there is a congratulation it is not an achievement of one, if there are congratulations it is for everyone. I can be the visible face as a Chef, but without their dedication I could not achieve it alone and I feel very proud of the team that has the kitchen of Sheraton Santiago"
