Masterclass at the Geneva Marriott Hotel
A culinary masterclass with chef Salvatore De Luca: turning a traditional recipe into a Swiss fusion creation.

This week, Alter Start entrepreneurs took part in a Masterclass in the kitchens of the Geneva Marriott Hotel, as part of the Catering Lab, the first programme of our accelerator.
An inspiring experience to go behind the scenes of a professional kitchen brigade and explore new culinary approaches.
A culinary challenge and conversations with the chefs
Guided by Banquet Chef Salvatore De Luca, the participants took on a challenge: turning a traditional recipe into a “Swiss fusion” creation using local, seasonal produce.
After two hours of intensive cooking, the dishes were plated, tasted and reviewed by the chefs. Executive Chef Fabrizio Domilici also shared his vision of regenerative, committed cuisine.
A formative experience
This Masterclass helped the entrepreneurs to:
- build their creativity and confidence
- refine their recipes
- better understand the demands of a professional kitchen
A big thank you to the Geneva Marriott Hotel teams for welcoming Alter Start's entrepreneurs and for their commitment.
