I bring Roman, Italian, and Mediterranean flavors to your table—with fresh pasta, craftsmanship, and a true sense of family.

Orfeo Troiani

I turn classic Italian tradition into a warm, unforgettable dining experience.

I’m a fourth-generation cook, and I’ve spent my life chasing the perfect bite of fresh pasta and elevating Roman, Italian, and Mediterranean classics with care, precision, and heart.

I’m the owner and founder of Tnema Ltd in London, where I specialize in gluten-free and fresh pasta using my own unique recipe. Over the last 25+ years, I’ve cooked across 12 countries and culinary cultures, worked in award-winning restaurants including 1–3 Michelin-star kitchens, and served as Executive Head Chef for the English Government with a reference at Downing Street.

For me, cooking is family, home, and the essence of life.

What you get when you cook with me

I cook from the heart

Cooking, to me, is family, home, and the essence of life—so I focus on generous flavors, honest technique, and the kind of hospitality that makes everyone feel welcome.

I’m shaped by tradition and high-level kitchens

I learned to cook surrounded by my family—my grandmother kneading kilos and kilos of fresh pasta, my mother baking cookies and cakes, and those aromas blending into something unforgettable. I’ve carried that foundation through 25+ years of professional experience across 12 countries, from Michelin-star restaurants to serving at the highest institutional level in the UK.

I keep it authentic and free

My kitchen secret is simple: I feel free. That freedom lets me cook with mastery and creativity while staying faithful to the soul of every dish.

Orfeo’s Menus

I offer tailored menus built around fresh pasta, Italian classics, pizza made with sourdough, and special indulgent experiences—always crafted with passion, top-quality ingredients, and a strong sense of togetherness at the table.

Reviews

Chef Orfeo was fabulous. Having him for a date night dinner was such a luxury - as a Coeliac being able to try so many new Italian dishes with SO MUCH flavour was such a treat. He was communicative, entertaining and LOVED food and cooking. We would absolutely and will be hiring him again. Thank you for such a memorable night & the best Italian I’ve had since being diagnosed with Coeliac Disease ✨

We had chef Orfeo over for a birthday celebration and it was really was a great experience. Chef Orfeo has previously contacted to discuss the menu based on my personal preference. He was punctual and professional on the day of the event. And with the food? he DELIVERED, all three dishes were incredible with a great portion. it really was a great pleasure to have chef Orfeo.
