Chef Burzio’s culinary journey is a captivating narrative. It begins with his role as the Executive Sous Chef at Sandy Lane Barbados, an iconic luxury resort in the Caribbean.

Next, his culinary adventures took him to Shangri-la Kowloon Hong Kong, where he started as the Chef de Cuisine at Angelini, a fine dining haven in Hong Kong’s bustling Tsim Sha Tsui district. His dedication and leadership played a pivotal role in earning Angelini a place among the Top 100 city restaurants in Hong Kong for two consecutive years. Despite the challenges brought on by the pandemic, Chef Burzio orchestrated remarkable results, increasing profitability, revenue, and covers by an impressive 35%.

Chef Burzio’s voyage continued at Acqua, Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts Mactan, where he managed Acqua Restaurant and the VIP Ocean Club Lounge. Here, he orchestrated breakfast, lunch, dinner, poolside service, and cocktail hours, serving between 300 to 500 meals daily. His adept management of a team of over 25 chefs, menu engineering, and food cost control, guest relations, and PR and media interactions established him as a true culinary luminary.

The allure of French cuisine beckoned, and Chef Burzio answered the call. In Aix En Provence, France, he took charge of a 45-seat demigastro restaurant and worked as an executive consultant for a new tapas bistro project. His role extended beyond the culinary realm, as he provided culinary vision, managed back-of-the-house operations, selected menu items, recruited and trained a high-caliber team, and handled purchasing, inventory control, and menu research and development. His influence even extended to kitchen hardware layout and planning for the new outlet.

Chef Burzio’s journey also led him to Thailand and Myanmar, where he served as the Head Chef for Zanotti Group. In this role, he managed Seasonal Restaurant in Khao Yai National Park, Thailand, a fine dining Italian sanctuary. His responsibilities then extended to oversee the opening of another fine dining Italian restaurant in Yangon, Myanmar, where he supervised and trained a team of young chefs, ensuring quality control and adherence to executive chef standards.

The culinary odyssey didn’t stop there. Chef Burzio explored a unique avenue as the Senior Sous Chef at Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection. Onboard one of the three ships, he oversaw breakfast, brunches, all-day dining, bar and lounge service, managing a small team under executive supervision. His poise and performance in the high-pressure cruise ship environment were truly commendable.

Finally, Chef Burzio’s journey led him to the prestigious Michelin-starred La Barrique restaurant, where he worked closely with Michelin-starred Chef Gallo. This chapter of his career involved mastering the art of slow cooking, mousses, espumas, and advanced food preparation techniques. He managed a staff of three highly skilled international chefs and was responsible for catering and private events.
