CHEF JOHN DELUCIE

John DeLucie is the Executive Chef and Partner of Lumaca, a new Southern Coastal Italian restaurant located in the HGU New York Hotel in NoMad.

A native New Yorker, John’s traditional Italian American family helped nurture his love of great food. His grandfather owned and operated a vegetable and grocery market in Brooklyn, and returned home each evening with a bounty of fresh, seasonal ingredients which his grandmother turned into a savory meal that brought family and friends together in a nightly ritual. Later, John attended a cooking class at the New School for Culinary Arts and his life’s passion was born.

With over 20 years in the business, John began his career in European kitchens, gaining experience in the food vernacular of Italy and France. He returned stateside and furthered his skills at several celebrated NYC eateries including but limited to, The Lion, The Waverly Inn, Empire Diner, Cafeteria, and Bedford & Co.
