About Teresa's Kitchen
Teresa Bortoluzzi is a private chef offering chalet catering in the Tarentaise Valley. She is based in Sainte-Foy Tarentaise, in the Haute-Savoie region of the French Alps.
Growing up in the Dolomite mountains of Northeastern Italy, cooking and food were always at the center of my life. Typical Italians, my family were passionate about high quality, healthy food, and my best memories from childhood are of picking fruit from my grandparents’ garden. Even as a little girl, learning how to cook at my grandmother’s side, I was making and selling jams to my relatives.
I studied Engineering Management and graduated with honors in 2017. Whiles studying in Bologna, the culinary capital of Italy, I found myself increasingly drawn towards cooking and the food industry. When the opportunity arose to move to the French Alps in 2018 and work as a ‘chef de cuisine’ in a restaurant kitchen, I took it.
Teresa’s Kitchen is my project, and I am looking forward to provide high quality and hearty homemade meals in the comfort of your own chalet. I specialize in healthy, sustainable cooking, of course with an Italian influence. I am passionate about using local products and seasonal ingredients to give you the most authentic and fresh experience.
