About

Damien Detcheverry
Certified Sommelier & Chef
I have been working in the hospitality industry since the age of 15.
Passionate for cooking from an early age, I entered at the hospitality school of Nice,France in 2001.
I spent the early part of my career between back and front of the house, before switching fully to the service side in my early 20.
After graduating in 2007, I worked in the kitchen of 5 star hotel Meriden Beach Plaza in Monte Carlo.
I moved to Canada in 2009, and worked for Master Chef of France Didier Leroy at his restaurant at St Clair and Yonge.
In 2011, I moved to New Zealand where I passed the certified sommelier exam with the highest score.
I returned to Canada in 2012, and have managed restaurants such as Mogette, Fiorentina and La Société in Toronto.
In 2019, I decided to truly focus on wine and started to sell wines for Le Sommelier wine Agency.
Following the covid year, I decided to go back to my roots, conducting private wine tastings, and doing a few caterings here and there.
In 2024, I decided to officially make it a business, and offer services with my unique skills of certified sommelier and trained chef.
