About
Born in the Austrian
Alps region of Tyrol, Chef Albrich was raised in an area where
the number one industry is tourism, in other words food and
lodging. He grew up around his parents' restaurant and lodge,
and ended up becoming a chef.
After attending a prestigious hotel & restaurant school, he
trained with first class chefs at the Hotel Maria Theresa in
Innsbruck. He also trained in a luxurious cruise ship that
sailed the Mediterranean, back when sailing was for the
privileged. After an unfortunate death in the family, he
returned home to run the family business. Chef Albrich later
opened his own restaurant in Tyrol called Café Del Arte, where
he had clients coming from as far as Germany to enjoy his
tastefully prepared delicacies.
Albrich had always wanted to move to the United States and
finally realized that dream in the late 80's. He settled in the
South Florida area where he opened and was the executive chef of
several restaurants.
Chef Albrich has impressive presentation skills. He combines the
freshest ingredients he finds at the market to create incredible
combinations that feast your eyes as well as your taste buds. He
is experienced in many traditional cuisines, but it's his fusion
of Asian and classical cuisines that creates the best
combinations. Additionally, his Tyrolean background strongly
influences his superb wild game dishes.
After selling his last restaurant, Chef Albrich took advantage
of the times and started working as a free lance web designer.
He is the developer and webmaster of numerous websites and
portals, most notable among them is www.CyberCuisine.net, a food
& beverage portal, and www.DiscoverTourism.com, dedicated to
tourism. He is currently working on a new portal
www.CulinaryBiz.com.
Eight years ago Chef Albrich returned to cooking when he took a
position as private chef. Planning constant dinner parties, he
has delighted and impressed clients and their distinguished
guests with his culinary skills and artistic presentations. With
no restrictions on his creativity, and often an unlimited
budget, Chef Albrich prepares an innovative, modern cuisine for
his affluent clients and is simply unbeatable with sauces.
Being a private chef offers Albrich a great deal of personal
satisfaction. He enjoys buying the best and freshest ingredients
in order to create what he feels is best for the particular
occasion and type of guest. Clients have always asked him to
cater larger events and he usually turned them down. In 2003 he
has started catering for larger groups (several hundred guests)
and now actually enjoys large events.
Chef Albrich is currently publishing a column in every issue of
a local South Florida magazine. It is called, "Entertaining with
Private Chef Albrich", and always features a new recipe.
