Anna Alaimo

Hailing from a small town in the south of Sicily, Anna Alaimo is the newest addition to Media One Hotel's Ciao Bella restaurant. The young chef will head up the kitchen to showcase her skills in Italian cuisine and create a new menu for the restaurant that will be revealed in June 2022.

Before joining Media One, Alaimo came to the UAE as a commi and progressed up the ladder fast. She had a stint working with in-flight catering, where she was a chef for business and first-class passengers.

Alaimo learned how to cook at the age of nine and it was her mother who inspired her to cook by telling her to fill the boring summer months by making lunch.
