Ciao, I'm Chef Francesco Mattana.

In 2017 I founded Our Cooking Journey with my partner Laura, who works in Social Media and Content Marketing Management within the food industry, to share authentic Italian recipes and create content. 

I started my own cooking journey 10 years ago as a chef in Italy. Since then I've worked in restaurants in Australia and London. In 2015, I founded a small Sardinian restaurant in Brisbane, Australia, before returning to Europe to learn more about cooking, teaching and other cuisines. In 2018, I turned to teaching and I was the Head Teacher Chef at Jamie Oliver's Cookery School in London after working for some of the top cookery schools in the city. 

Now I offer cooking classes in Sardinia and London. These lessons are available to people of all levels, in English and Italian and will teach you how to make authentic Sardinian dishes, fresh pasta and Italian breads. 

Our Cooking Journey also creates social media and video content for brands and food companies. For collaborations and partnerships, please email ourcookingjourney2017@gmail.com or use the contact form below.
