Passion for Fine Dining

Discover the history, dedication, and international background behind every culinary experience by Gustavo Cardona in Florida.

14 Years of Experience and Culinary Passion

I am Gustavo Cardona, a professional chef with 14 years of experience in the culinary world. I trained in Colombia at Fundación Universitaria del Área Andina and complemented my education with multiple courses in cold kitchen, hot kitchen, and pastry arts. My style combines Peruvian, Colombian, Japanese, and Italian influences, with a special devotion to seafood and artisanal desserts.

Restaurant Experience at Your Table

 

Throughout my career, I have worked in more than seven renowned restaurants, such as Esturión, Chabuca, El Buzo, Ají Ceviche Bar (Bogotá Club House Hotel), Pisco Peruvian Food, and The Eye Orlando, where I led the kitchen by designing a menu of over 30 dishes. Each kitchen taught me technique, discipline, and the art of creating memorable dishes under the highest standards.

 

Precision, Freshness, and Dedication

For me, cooking is an act of love and professionalism. My secret is based on selecting the highest quality fresh ingredients, preparing an impeccable mise en place, and executing each dish with perfect timing. I offer fully personalized attention in Florida so you can enjoy an exclusive, balanced, and unforgettable culinary evening.
