Born in France to a Colombian mother, Axel grew up surrounded by a rich tapestry of cultures — raised across South America before settling in Palma de Mallorca during his teenage years.
His father, a Michelin-starred chef and owner of one of Mallorca’s leading gastronomic restaurants, introduced him early to the world of haute cuisine and the art of exceptional produce.
That early foundation sparked a career that took Axel through some of France’s most esteemed kitchens, including the two-Michelin-starred restaurant at the Grand Hôtel de Bordeaux.
Drawn by his lifelong passion for the ocean and surfing, Axel transitioned naturally into the superyacht industry — blending fine dining with adventure across the South Pacific.
Fluent in French, Spanish, and English, he thrives on discovering local ingredients and crafting dishes that reflect the character of each destination, from the Galápagos to French Polynesia.
Now based in Australia, Axel continues to weave together his love of the sea, culture, and cuisine — creating food that tells stories of place, people, and passion.
