Leo Trippi Offers Clients ‘Chefs At New Heights’ Experience
Award winning alpine travel specialist, Leo Trippi as entered a partnership with KSH Management and Kando Events. The three companies have collaborated to offer clients a unique Michelin-starred dining and exhilarating high-altitude skiing experience across Europe. Founded by Kirsty Stanley Hughes, KSH Management provides access to the world’s greatest Michelin-starred chefs and renowned sommeliers including Jason Atherton, Simon Rogan, Phil Howard, Ollie Dabbous and Adam Handling.
Leo Trippi takes a highly personal and hands-on approach to building relationships with guests. Ahead of departure, an expert client manager will travel to meet guests in the location of their choice to plan their bespoke itinerary. This includes deciding the destination, the specific chalet and the Michelin-starred chef they would like to accompany them to ensure both on and off-piste exertions are delightfully fuelled.
Travelling with a chef means the quality of each guest’s meal will be unsurpassable, closely matched by the spectacular mountain setting. Imagine, for example, being whisked by helicopter up to a mountain top to watch sunrise, while Phil Howard creates an indulgent breakfast to power your run back down through untouched snow. Alternatively, guests may spend a day skiing to a remote location, where Leo Trippi’s team will have created a magical setting, complete with ice sculptures, ice-carved tables and chairs, with an abundance of faux-fur throws to ward off the chill. Here, a sumptuous dinner prepared by the chef will be enjoyed under the darkening winter skies, before guests embark on an adventurous night ski back down to their chalet. These completely unique experiences will be heightened by skiing time on the mountain with the chef, whose own piste ability is exceptional. Guests may choose to have meals prepared and served to them in their chalet, while those wishing to develop their cooking skills may enjoy a private cooking lesson with their chef, learning how to recreate some of those Michelin-worthy dishes at home.
