Behind every special moment at 1 Hotels is our incredible team. Meet Giancarlo Valera, Chef de Cuisine at @1hotel.southbeach’s Plnthouse and @1beachclubsobe, where he plays with vibrant flavors and colors that reflect the diverse flora and fauna of South Beach. ⁠ ⁠ He learned his style at an early age cooking with his mom, sometimes adding extra ingredients to enhance her recipes. “I grew up very close to the Pacific Ocean, where fresh fish is part of the culture. At 1 Hotel South Beach, I mix the clean flavors of Mediterranean cuisine with a flavorful Peruvian background.” ⁠ ⁠ Visit the link in our bio to explore Chef Giancarlo’s fresh, flavorful menus made with locally and ethically sourced ingredients. ⁠ ⁠ #1hotels #1hotelsouthbeach #miami #miamieats #farmtotable⁠
