Chef Rui is a true professional.

He’s very talented in all levels of cooking,, especially in his knowledge of molecular gastronomy
Tomás Lencastre – CEO Microgreens
A sua estima pela cozinha molecular destacou-se nas receitas que nos desenvolveu para a nossa linha de "caviar vegetal". Em pouco tempo entregou exatamente o que procurávamos e deu-nos formação para o conseguir executar. Simpatia e profissionalismo em perfeita harmonia. A repetir!

I can't say enough good things about Chef Rui – he's a fantastic chef and a joy to work with! Every time we've collaborated, he's gone above and beyond, surprising us with his culinary creations. Clients always love his work, whether it's a cozy Christmas meal or something more exotic like Oriental dishes. For anyone seeking a dedicated and versatile chef, I highly recommend Chef Rui, the perfect choice for any occasion. No doubt, he's the absolute best!
Inês Gavinho, CEO Gavinho Group
O Rui é um chef criativo, dedicado, de excelência. Executa com delicadeza e perfeição. Sem nunca perder o extremo profissionalismo procura humanizar a sua gastronomia adequando-a a quem a contempla. Além de tudo é um ser humano muito completo, e acessível. Recomendo sempre”
Joana Grácio CEO Toxinn
Ao Chef Rui Mota não só pelas sugestões, sempre pertinentes, feitas, pela comida incrível (quer em sabor ou apresentação) e staff empático, disponível, focado mas ainda assim bem disposto. A fluidez do vosso trabalho, o facto de passarem quase impercetíveis durante o evento sem que nada faltasse foi fora de série. A souplesse do vosso serviço é admirável - tal como a forma que geres a tua equipa: com calma mas firmeza. Servir tantas pessoas com tanta qualidade é algo que te deves orgulhar muito!
