The Curators – Rodolfo Lavrador, Sous Chef at CURA, Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon


Our curators define our DNA and who we are. Here we introduce our sous chef Rodolfo Lavrador who, side by side with chef Pedro Pena Bastos oversees day-to-day operations in the back of the house at CURA.

“We’re capturing the essence of our cuisine in a new way, a better way, a different way, using new ingredients and skills to showcase familiar flavours. That’s where the magic happens.”

Lavrador oversees day-to-day operations in the back of the house at CURA. He also works closely with Chef Pedro Pena Bastos, offering creative input on the menu as his demanding schedule allows. “Some days, we can just focus on new dishes and ideas,” he says. “Those days are great.” Other days offer flashes of inspiration, such as for a palate cleanser of strawberries and champagne foam he devised with Bastos after service ended late one night at 1:00 am. “It’s always gratifying to see things you’ve dreamed up come to life.”
