👩‍🍳 Meet Your Teacher: Chef Lucia

Lucia’s culinary journey began at the elbow of her Nonna, whipping up meringues and custards from a young age — and a lifelong love of baking was born. After graduating in Culinary Arts at Università dei Sapori and training in some of Italy’s finest pastry kitchens, she brought her talents to London in 2017.

Her impressive career includes roles at the prestigious Fortnum & Mason Jubilee Tea Salon and the 5-star Cadogan Hotel. Today, Lucia is a fully plant-based chef passionate about creating kinder, allergy-conscious food that nourishes both body and soul.

As head chef at Third Culture Deli, she merges her Italian roots with East Asian flavours in unique, plant-based creations. She’s also a seasoned supper club host and cookery teacher, known for her warm, engaging teaching style and dedication to sharing the joy of plant-based cooking.
