The chef, born in Chicago, trained at the prestigious Gambero Rosso Culinary Academy in Rome and has worked in 20 restaurants around the world including Denmark’s Noma, recognised on several occasions as the best in the world, and at Era Opa in Copenhagen which has two Michelin stars.
He is filming a documentary series about the culinary culture of Malaga which aims to become a magnet for audiences on the other side of the Atlantic.

Since 2007, he has been working as a private chef for very wealthy clients, which is why he is now known as the chef to the uber rich. Webb has also been working on his own business project, the documentary series #ChefOnTour in which he narrates how food affects the cultural approach of each country and details the lifestyle, gastronomy and the most striking places of each country he visits.
