Introducing Executive Chef Markus Kühni
Valentina Cucina e Bar is honoured to start a new chapter in our culinary journey, working together with Executive Chef Markus Kühni who will take up a role in our humble restaurant.
Nearing the end of the second year of operations, Valentina Cucina e Bar will be guided by a career professional in culinary who has had different experience throughout his time spent in the Middle East, China, Bali (Indonesia) and now Kuala Lumpur, enhancing its menu with an already seasoned kitchen team.
No stranger to the hospitality industry’s leading brands such as IHG, Shangri-La, Dusit Thani, Banyan Tree, Marriott and Kempinski Hotels, Chef Markus now spends his time between the Swiss Italian border right to the heart of Switzerland as well as traversing the skies of China and Bali Indonesia where is he a partner-owner of the much talked about Swiss Chalet Grill & Bar Ubud.
Speaking French, Italian, German and English the multi lingua talented Chef will impart his skills and knowledge to the Malaysian team whilst preserving the already authentic offerings of Valentina. Having served Presidents and Heads of State alike while heading the culinary team of Yanqi Lake Kempinski (Hosts of the then 2014 APEC Meeting) it was here that Chef Markus was enticed towards ASEAN and thus his love for Bali, Indonesia began!
His desire to discover new countries will stretch his live journey to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. While it has always been short stays between destinations, Chef Markus is set to spend more of his time in the humble kitchen of Valentina along with his assistant to further enhance the already growing interest in diners craving authentic Italian cuisine. While his days of serving as the “Royal Chef” for the former Queen of Thailand are long gone, those experience coupled with his passion and exquisite taste that can only come from a good exposure of Swiss and Italian cuisine will bring a new chapter to Valentina! Ciao as they say, and come assaporare il vero gusto dell'Italiae
