About Pasquale Altomonte

Pasquale was born in the south of France from Italian immigrants and at a young age the family migrated to the USA and that’s where he grew up. Pasquale mainly leaved in New Jersey but also NY, and a bit of California. Having always been interested in understanding how things work and operate, he started his carrier in a technical field after studying engineering (specializing in traffic safety engineering). After a number of years, he gains a management degree that gave him more of a management role but the passion to learn and cook was becoming more evident.

With wanting to continue his evolution, Pasquale goes for an MBA specialized in public health to bridge three worlds that are interlinked, business, health and cooking. Always looking to challenge himself and to go forward with his atypical apprenticeship, he goes up against the best chefs from all corners of the culinary world and after more than fifty competitions, yes that’s’ 50 to his credit, including Bocuse d’Or, Trophée Passion, Grand Prix Joseph Favre, etc. and also winning the title of World Champion of Note à Note Cuisine (= cuisine of the future, zero waste, respectful of the planet, combining science & cuisine) he decides to start new project. Because of his love for cooking and also sharing his knowledge he coaches numerous people to the top of the podium (Cuillère d’Or Trophy, Poivrier d’Argent, MasterChef, Cook’n’Salt, etc.).

After years of working and traveling the world to cultivate he’s culinary thirst (France, Monaco, USA, Japan, Vietnam, Spain etc.), Pasquale finally settled where he met his wife in Geneva Switzerland. After a few more years of working with Michelin star chefs like, Pierre Gagnaire, Pierre-André Ayer and Denis Martin just to name a few he decided to start Kitchen Lab as the Chef, entrepreneur, culinary competition coach for professionals and amateurs.

KITCHEN LAB

The approach to the cuisine is always to use ingredients that are locally sourced, seasonal and never waste anything from the product. A Mediterranean style filled with flares from his travels in Asia and love of Latin America. “As long as it is not toxic I will use it in my cuisine”. It’s an innovative, multisensory cuisine that respects the planet and every human being. The cuisine goes beyond the zero waste because zero waste usually doesn’t take into account the compostable items and here there is no compost, everything use utilized to give the clients the ultimate experience in gastronomy. For example, for fish, every part of the fish in different dishes such as rendering the bones into a powder that will become a seasoning, skin as chips, organs as foam etc. It is also adapted to the needs of each individual (e.g. health, allergies, diets, therapies, etc.), to the needs of the moment (e.g. sports training) or to the desires of each individual (e.g. note-to-note cooking, fusion, molecular, etc.). In constant research and development, I put my passion for culinary innovation at your disposal.

Regularly invited to speak in international conferences about the future of food such as the World Science and Cooking Congress in Barcelona, he continues to share his passion and knowledge. Pasquale, also gives Masterclasses to high profile Chefs from around the world, organizes private functions
