MEET YOUR CHEF

Yolimar Guzmán

202203170584 (1)

Yolimar Guzmán was born on January 15th in Caracas, Venezuela. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Special Education from Universidad José María Vargas.

Chef Guzmán has been interested in gastronomy since her early childhood. Upon completing her studies in Education, she began to train as a pastry chef. However, she felt very passionate about gastronomy. Before class, she would visit her mother, who was working as a chef for the Embassy of France at that time, to observe the preparation process of several dishes.

She participated in various gastronomic events of the Austrian Embassy and prepared desserts and artisan bread for the Swiss Embassy for four consecutive years. In July 2022, she had the honor of creating and preparing desserts for the celebration of the Swiss National Day in Venezuela.

Tell us what the kitchen means to you?

 The kitchen is where the magic that lives within me is expressed. I enjoy doing my work very much. I love cooking, innovating, and creating. With each recipe, I try to establish a connection with my guests. I want them to feel a unique and particular feeling when they taste my food. I hope people can taste the love, creativity, and passion in each bite.

Cooking sets you free. Chefs are artists, creating art in the food we prepare, which has the unique ability to touch the heart with every bite.  There are no limits to creativity.

As a child, I could be found in a kitchen with my grandmother from the moment I was eight years old. She was a woman I loved and honored because she was a part of my beginnings in gastronomy. I remember climbing onto a stool to reach the stove. I loved watching her cook, and she loved teaching me. It was at that moment that my professional training began.

I am now in an excellent place, surrounded by the best team, and in my prime. I am a firm believer in energies.
