Passionate Claudio Aprile - Owner and Executive Chef at Origin

Claudio Aprile has been called a food renegade, a mad scientist and a North American pioneer of molecular gastronomy. There's one thing for certain: Aprile is passionate about his craft and maintains an incredible sense of adventure many chefs have lost a long time ago.

Chef Aprile is intensely driven with an insatiable creative spirit and a low tolerance for inefficiency. Aprile's attention to detail combined with a tell-it-like-it-is personality is extremely well documented and can be perceived as both antagonistic and refreshing. 

For Chef Aprile, it's the food that matters most and it takes centre stage. By using fresh, always in-season ingredients, Aprile's simple yet intricate culinary creations range from Spanish and Thai to classic Canadian masterpieces which never compromise on quality or flavour. Claudio Aprile dazzles and impresses Origin patrons time and time again.
