Having worked at some of the most respected and innovative kitchens in NYC as a pastry chef and chocolatier, Amadou turned his focus to artisanal baking at the iconic Arcade Bakery, where he perfected his skills under the tutelage of Roger Gural for five years. Now, at ALF, Amadou is sharing his own vision and creations with NYC.
