Chef Cinthia

The Heart Behind BRASA

Meet Chef Cinthia

Classical foundations. Refined hospitality. Brazilian soul.

For Chef Cinthia, the passion for cooking began long before formal culinary education. Raised in Bahia, in Brazil’s culturally rich Northeast—Nordeste—she grew up surrounded by vibrant food traditions and the warmth of shared meals.

Her earliest inspiration came from her grandmother, a professional cook whose kitchen carried the aromas of freshly baked bread, traditional dishes, and meals prepared over glowing embers. Those experiences shaped Chef Cinthia’s enduring belief that memorable food requires care, patience, and respect for the people gathered around the table.

Her approach draws on classical French culinary techniques, Italian culinary traditions, international influences, and the flavors of her Brazilian heritage.

Through BRASA Private Table, Chef Cinthia combines professional culinary education with a personal commitment to quality ingredients, balanced flavors, thoughtful preparation, and refined presentation.

For Chef Cinthia, exceptional hospitality begins with understanding each guest.

A Personal Note

At the Chef’s Table

“My favorite food takes me back to my childhood in Brazil: coxinha de frango. I love the contrast of its crisp, golden exterior and the soft, tender dough inside. It is comfort food, memory, and home in a single bite.”

— Chef Cinthia
