Accomplished Chef with a proven track record of enhancing kitchen operations and reducing food costs to 36% at Auntie Skinner's Riverboat Club. Expert in ingredient knowledge and kitchen management, I excel in crafting seasonal menus and negotiating with vendors. My leadership skills have successfully transformed dining experiences, achieving a 3-star Mobil Travel Guide rating for The Galley Restaurant & Bar.
This is only a brief representation of my professional career.
I have a vast repertoire of accomplishments spanning over my
30+ years of experience that would not, in it's entirety, fit into a simple resume.
Thank you and i look forward to working together.
Respectfully,
Herbert E. Kappler
