Executive Chef Nico Amroune was lured
into the culinary world when his passion
for this industry and for food was recognized
at an early age. Chef Nico went on to
study the culinary arts at Oxford University,
where he learned to develop his own unique
style and flair. He continued with his
career at exclusive restaurants such as
Galileo, Spezie, La Tosca and Teatro Goldoni.
Over the years, he worked under influential
leaders of the Italian culinary profession
who helped shape his style and depth of
knowledge. After moving to Washington
DC, Chef Nico was appointed Executive
Sous Chef at Tosca Restaurant. Chef Nico
balances his culinary career with enjoying
every spare moment with his Daughter.
Chef Nico's culinary philosophy and passion
reflects the growing trend towards a healthier
and down-to-earth lifestyle. Working with
neighboring farmers to seek out the finest
in regional and local organic produce,
is the essence of his cuisine. Nico's
preference is to allow the natural flavors
of food to express themselves. Prior to
reaching this destination, Chef Nico was
the executive chef at Teatro Goldoni.
Of his career and recent move to Famoso
in 2009, Nico says, "I've been so
fortunate to learn from some of the best
in the business and oversee some of DC's
best kitchens. To be bringing my expertise
and talents to Famoso, is the highlight
of my career - I look forward to making
our guests' experiences truly memorable
ones."
