Even during his high school education in Culinary school in Split, Antonio has been a part of the team in the kitchen of Hotel Radisson Blue in Split, where he continued to work for the next 2 seasons after receiving a professional chef's diploma (2015). Leaving an outstanding mark there, Antonio was invited to join Yellow Tree - a new, fine dining restaurant, located at the seaside in front of Diocletian's Palace. Summer 2017 Antonio spent as a chef on board of newly built mini cruiser. After that experience, Antonio was determined that his path is to present his professional skills to a smaller group of clients on an intimate level and personal approach. When he received an invitation to join Libra, Antonio saw an opportunity to showcase his full potential, skill, and love of culinary art. Another detail was important to Antonio when he chose Libra for his playground: Libra's galley is opened, placed in the salon which provides easy communication with guests, especially with those interested in getting some of Antonio's cooking tips, secrets of the trade, recipes or simply to watch him create his magic. Antonio's inspiration comes from locally produced, seasonal, and fresh ingredients. Fluent in English.
