Head Chef - Cesar bartolini

Cesar Bartolini hails from Buenos Aires, Argentina. After graduating from Gato Dumas Culinary School in 2000, Cesar moved to Ireland to the beautiful Clontarf Castle Hotel near Dublin, where he worked as Commis Chef and Chef de Partie, cooking exquisite food using the finest local produce.

Cesar then honed his culinary skills across a number of respected Argentinian and UK hotel kitchens, including the Renaissance hotels in London Gatwick and London Heathrow, giving him the perfect grounding to take on the role of Sous Chef at Foxtrot Oscar in central London in 2008.

After a year at the much-loved Chelsea Bistro, he moved across to Gordon Ramsay’s Plane Food bar & restaurant in Heathrow Terminal 5 to be Sous Chef, however his passion and talent in the kitchen quickly led to him becoming Head Chef and overseeing the busy kitchen.
