## Resource

Ivan Ralston Bielawski is the chef and owner of Tuju in São Paulo. He was born in São Paulo in 1985, and comes from a family with strong ties to gastronomy; his parents are the founders of the Brasilian  Ráscal restaurant  chain. He initially studied music at the Berklee College of Music in the United States, but in his twenties decided to follow his true passion: cooking. He then trained abroad and worked at some of the world’s most famous restaurants, including El Celler de Can Roca and Mugaritz in Spain, and RyuGin in Japan. In 2014, Ivan Ralston opened Tuju in São Paulo. Just one year later, the restaurant earned its first Michelin star, and in 2016, it joined the list of the Latin America’s 50 Best Restaurants. In this podcast, we will hear about Ivan Ralston’s Brazilian identity with multiple ethnic backgrounds. At the end of the podcast he will reveal his favourite restaurants in Brazil and the rest of the world.
