About & Hobbies
I am an experienced head chef looking for a similar position on a motor yacht. I spent 4 years studying food and beverage management and culinary arts at the University of “Lyon3” and institute Paul BOCUSE in France. I have 8 years experience working, on super yachts over seven years of experience working as a chef and a year in well known restaurants in Paris, Lyon, Cannes and Israel. During my years of education I worked at the restaurant \\"Crillon\\" hotel in Concorde Place and in \\"Crillon\\" in Port Maillot, Paris and both a Three-Michelin star.
I am now 33 years old. Being a Chef is my life. I am a passionate about food - when I was 18 years old I was very happy to get my first position as a chef in a very famous restaurant in Israel. At the age of 24, I was already a Head Chef at \\\"Harem\\\" restaurant in Cannes and the youngest in the kitchen with a brigade of 4 chefs working under me and 10 wait staff. I speak four languages ,and fluent in both writing and speaking. Guest relations and teamwork for me always come easy maybe because I’m bubbly,friendly and approachable by nature.
I have a very good knowledge in “healthy\\" and organic food. I can cook various dishes like Mediterranean Cuisine that includes French, Lebanese, Italian,Arabic, Moroccan and a whole lot more. In Asian cuisine I also cook in variety but my specialty is all sorts of sushi delights hot and cold,I also do trendy Fusion, Kosher, Dukhan and other several fad diets. Moreover, sweet treats,desserts and bakes adds to my expertise as well.
OBJECTIVE : As a seasoned Chef, who has studied and lived in France for the past 15 years, I aim to hold a top position on a yacht where I can use my initiative and experience to make a variety of quality dishes utilizing the techniques and methods I have learnt. I love working on yacht and enjoy challenging job and would like to experience and grow more in my career. I am also happy to teach and mentor junior chefs as well
