Daily Cooks Challenge
Gino D'Acampo

Gino D'Acampo

Gino D’Acampo was born in Napoli and specialises in Italian cooking.

As a child, Gino was inspired by his grandfather’s passion for food and began a catering course when he was just 15. He worked in kitchens around Europe before coming to London, aged 20.

After head chef assignments in various London restaurants, including Pane Vino and The Orchard in Belsize Park, Gino’s easy manner and skills in Italian cookery were noticed and he started appearing as a guest on UKTV’s Great Food Live.

He’s since appeared on BBC’s Ready, Steady Cook, ITV1's Daily and Saturday Cooks as well as celebrity food contest Soapstar, Superchef.

Gino is a development consultant chef for Tesco’s Finest range. He lives in Hertfordshire with his wife and their two young children.
