FRANZ HUTSCHENREUTER

Franz was born in the beautiful city of Dresden in Germany and came to live in the Azores more than 20 years ago. By growing up on Faial Island he became a true Azorian, with strong connections to people and land of his adoptive home.
Very much in love with the islands and with everything that surrounds them, Franz is a competent tourist guide on land and in the sea. Over the years has developed a special esteem for Azorean cuisine and products. As a cook he knows the traditional cooking techniques of the islands well and likes to give them a little twist with elements, seasonings and creativity from distant places.
