86. Alberto Landgraf: Where Talent Meets Perseverance


Listen Later

Brazil stands out as one of the world's most diverse countries, deeply influenced by global cultures. Its rich tapestry of art, music, dance, architecture, and, notably, cuisine has left a lasting mark on the global stage. Within this vibrant landscape emerges a new wave of Brazilian creatives, eager to showcase the nation's present while honoring its storied past.

Among these individuals is Chef Alberto Landgraf, a luminary in the culinary world with accolades like Two Michelin stars and recognition in the prestigious World's 50 Best Restaurants list for Oteque in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. His mission? To illuminate the trajectory of Brazilian cuisine on a global scale.

Alberto's culinary journey began in London during the early 2000s, where he honed his skills alongside renowned chefs like Tom Aiken and Gordon Ramsay. Returning to Brazil, he made waves with his first restaurant, Epice, in São Paulo, earning critical acclaim including a coveted Michelin star.

In 2018, Alberto made a pivotal move to Rio and unveiled Oteque, drawing inspiration not from his Japanese heritage in ingredients but in ethos: embracing simplicity and meticulous technique. A true global citizen, he traverses the globe for collaboration dinners with culinary icons, yet always remains rooted in his Brazilian heritage, ensuring that his creations resonate with the soul of Brazil.
