OUR CHEF
JOSÉ CERVANTES
Jose Cervantes was born in Apurimac, seat of the Chanca culture, from where he arrived in Lima as child. At very young age he started working in the culinary world. From his beginning in the gastronomy, he specialized in banquets working next to Maritza Guiulfo in Lima. Later, he departed to Londres where he worked for ambassador Gilbert Shonil at the Peruvian embassy. Little by little, he acquired all the skills that just the experience offer to be an expert in the kitchen.
He arrived in Paris from the hand of Mr. Javier Pérez de Cuéllar, working also with the Minister Ines Valverde and others. His culinary skills had been recognized in the Capital of Light by the French community and Hispanic. He is considered as one of the best chefs of the Peruvian gastronomy in Paris.
His function at MACCHUPISKO, besides the Chef of the kitchen, is to put the name of Peru and its renowned gastronomy in the place that deserve.
