We are passionate about food, but mainly about chefs and their stories and Fer is one of our favorites. For many the best chef in Argentina, for us a DOER that never ceases to inspire us.

For him, everything started in his grandmother's kitchen. Her hands cooking, creating, mixing ingredients were the foundation of his passion and what led him to study gastronomy at 18 years old.

He trained with giants of Argentine cuisine, such as Gato Dumas and Francis Mallmann, and at just 22 years old he took over his first restaurant, Llers, a different concept that marked a before and after in the Buenos Aires culinary scene.

Not satisfied with this, he decided to risk everything to come to New York and without papers and without knowing English, he took over the kitchen of Van Dam. In case you aren't that much into gastronomy, Van Dam was a favorite of countless iconic artists and personalities from all walks of life. Here, he cooked for people like Bowie, Eric Clapton, Robert de Niro and more.

Not satisfied with this once again and answering a call from his roots, he decided to go back to Buenos Aires to open Sucre to which he then add Orilla, Belgrano's hit with his version in Miami, and Mostrador Santa Teresita in José Ignacio and Montauk, our favorite go-to summer spots.

Thanks Fer for always opening up the doors of your home for us and letting us be part of your incredible world.
