Regiane Aggio Burton

Arthurs Point,Queenstown

Summary

I have been a chef since 2006 in Brazil, and in the last 17 years, I have worked in New Zealand at the very high-end cuisine in Queenstown and Wellington.

Last year, I decided to take a break from the kitchen, but now I am ready to return and use my skills to cook some amazing food.
