Chef in Palm Springs, California

I'm an
Individual
I have over twenty years of experience as an Executive Chef, specializing in gourmet cuisine, working in fine dining culinary establishments. I am trained in classic Italian cooking and use that training to create fusion dishes, incorporating Asian, Spanish, French, old school American and other world influences into my food. I also specialize in nutritional cuisine – creating meals that are for sensitive diets (including Gluten-Free, Vegetarian/Vegan, Organic and Farm-To-Table meals). Creating menus, inventing new & exciting dishes and utilizing my knowledge of cooking make me a valuable asset to most fine dining institutions. I also have extensive experience in front of the house operations with wine, craft beer and service management. In addition, I have managed multiple kitchens and successfully provided support services to a twelve-member culinary team. My experience also includes handling food and beverage orders, managing purchases and overseeing a variety of operations within the food service industry. I am never afraid to work hard, get dirty and be an integral part of the action. I also know how to run a kitchen efficiently, cost-effectively and friendly.
