Miko Calo
Head chef/partner, Metronome; Chef/partner, Franco
To truly grasp flavours and masterfully conduct a symphony of ingredients, or for that matter, coax out bold expressions from just a few elements is a feat that is meant to be celebrated. Chef Miko Calo of Metronome is a woman who does not settle for less than excellent. She lives in the nuances of her craft, constantly finessing her every move until the menu, and every plate meets her highest of standards. Not a woman to rush, chef Calo takes her time to indulge in the beauty of cuisine, and bask in the hectic nature of her craft. Trained in classic French techniques under the mentorship of the legendary chef Joël Robuchon, this gourmand is a force to be reckoned with. Not only does she treasure locally sourced ingredients, but she avidly supports local artisans even through the plates seen at Metronome (which she designed herself!).
