Chef Nicola Pepe

 

Chef Nicola Pepe is an award-winning Italian chef known for his refined take on traditional Italian cuisine. After winning Hell’s Kitchen Italia Season 5, he went on to lead kitchens in prestigious restaurants, including the JW Marriott in Venice. With roots in northern Italy and a career shaped by Michelin-starred experience, Chef Pepe brings both authenticity and innovation to every dish he creates.


Now based in Barrie, he is the Executive Chef here at 147, a modern Italian restaurant in the heart of Downtown Barrie. Chef Pepe focuses on seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, house-made pastas, and elevated comfort food that pays homage to his Italian heritage. His cooking style is approachable yet sophisticated — always designed to create a memorable dining experience.


Chef Pepe was recently recognized as Top Chef Barrie for his signature Panettone Cream dessert, a rich and elegant dish that’s now proudly featured on our menu.
