Executive Chef Nico Amroune was lured into the culinary
world when his passion for this industry and for
food was recognized at an early age. Chef Nico went
on to study the culinary arts at Oxford University,
where he learned to develop his own unique style
and flair. He continued with his career at exclusive
restaurants such as Galileo, Spezie, La Tosca and
Teatro Goldoni.
Over the years, he worked under influential leaders
of the Italian culinary profession who helped shape
his style and depth of knowledge. After moving to
Washington DC, Chef Nico was appointed Executive
Sous Chef at Tosca Restaurant. Chef Nico balances
his culinary career with enjoying every spare moment
with his Daughter.
Chef Nico's culinary philosophy and passion reflects
the growing trend towards a healthier and down-to-earth
lifestyle. Working with neighboring farmers to seek
out the finest in regional and local organic produce,
is the essence of his cuisine. Nico's preference
is to allow the natural flavors of food to express
themselves. Prior to reaching this destination,
Chef Nico was the executive chef at Teatro Goldoni.
Of his career and recent move to Famoso in 2009,
Nico says, "I've been so fortunate to learn
from some of the best in the business and oversee
some of DC's best kitchens. To be bringing my expertise
and talents to Famoso, is the highlight of my career
- I look forward to making our guests' experiences
truly memorable ones."
