Francis Mallmann is an Argentine celebrity chef, author, and restaurateur who specializes in Patagonian cuisine. In this talk, he shares his unique perspective on life, guided by the French expression “à point”.
At the age of 19, he began managing a restaurant with a partner. He then travelled to Paris, where he spent over two years learning alongside Alain Chapel and other reputable chefs. After returning to Argentina, he spent several years driving the kitchen of a fashionable restaurant, before opening his own place in Palermo. Mallmann is today Argentina’s most famous chef. Despite owning restaurants in Mendoza, Buenos Aires, Uruguay, Miami, Chile, and France, his cuisine is not defined by a restaurant but by his style: cooking in the middle of nature using open fires. Statedly, he cooks to “send a message of a way of living”. He has been featured on numerous international television programmes, as well as on the Netflix original series Chef's Table.
