About Javier
I am a classically trained chef from Mexico City with a diploma from Le Cordon Bleu San Francisco and over a decade of professional experience. My journey began as a line cook in high-end Bay Area restaurants, continued through years with top catering companies, and expanded into working as a professional chef. I bring precision and creativity to the kitchen, teaching students not only how to cook, but how to think like a chef and bring out the best in every ingredient.
