Louis, a new exciting restaurant and live musical venue from the Permanently Unique Group, whose reputation for creating unforgettable dining experiences has culminated in the development of this ambitious new project, are pleased to announce Matteo D’Elia as their Head Chef ahead of their September opening.
D’Elia joins the Louis team alongside Executive Chef Ippokratis Anagnostelis, bringing indulgent dishes inspired by New York’s Italian-American restaurants and the silver screen to Manchester.
He has over 13 years of experience working in Michelin starred kitchens across the UK and internationally, notably featuring stints at Galvin at Windows and Bibendum under Claude Bosi.
Chef also worked closely with Sidney Schutte on the opening of the Waldorf Astoria in Amsterdam, together successfully attaining two Michelin stars 6 months after opening.
D’Elia helmed kitchens at some of London’s most luxurious restaurants including Broadwick Soho and most recently Il Gattopardo in Mayfair. His credentials and experience have seen him hone his skills while drawing on his Italian heritage, from growing up in Rome.
Chef Matteo D’Elia said on joining the Permanently Unique Group team: “I am thrilled to join the team at such a pivotal moment. The opening of Louis will introduce a unique experience to Manchester. Italian-American cuisine is especially exciting, as it evokes fond memories of my upbringing in Rome. Having crafted similar menus before, I am eager to explore, experiment, and create something extraordinary with the team.”
