Claudio Aprile

Canadian Chef
By: Joshua Nicholas
Biography
Claudio was born in Uruguay and grew up in Toronto. Since he
was 5 years old, Aprile has always wanted to be a chef and has
been cooking since he was 14 years old.
Aprile has worked in some of the world's most renowned
kitchens. He gained excellent reviews as a young executive chef
while working in countless restaurants.
Aprile partnered up with Liberty Group team in 2019 regarding
a fresh idea called Xango. The restaurant, which specialises in
Asian and Latin American cuisine.
Claudio is a judge on the famous tv series Masterchef Canada,
which brought some more attention to his name.
Cuisine/Recipe
• Claudio specializes in a ton of
different cuisines, such as French,
Italian, Latin American and Asian.
My favourite recipe I found from
Claudio is his crepe cake with
dulce de leche and bananas

 My Own Restaurant
If I were to open my own restaurant I
would want it to specialize in desserts,
and 3 questions I would ask chefs would
be...
• What is your favorite or least favorite
dish to prepare?
• How long have you been cooking/baking
for?
•What dishes showcase your creativity?
New Show
Concept
2 other chefs I would hire
would be Alvin Leung and
Roger Mooking. I would call
the show "The Perfect
Plate" and the dish I would
choose would be Claudio
Aprile's Tropical Bangcakes,
I chose this recipe because
It looks amazing and I think
I would enjoy eating it a lot.
How to make the recipe
more nutritious?

To make the bangcakes more

nutritious I would replace the all
purpose flour with whole wheat
flour and replace the whipped
cream with a Greek yogurt and milk
combination, I can also remove the
sugar from the pineapple syrup.
