About Chef Romer Valera

Romer Valera is a Venezuelan architect passionate about food. He has been based in Beijing since 2012. At the age of 16, Romer became interested in cooking when he moved in with his first mentor in the kitchen, his grandma. 5 years later when he was 21, he moved to Italy to continue his studies in architecture, where he also discovered a new world of flavours and ingredients. Romer’s dishes are strongly influenced by these two cultures that are close to his heart, combining tropical and exotic flavours with Italian products.
