Josh Gilbon spent the past five years growing and developing as a cook under Chef Jeff. With more than 8 years kitchen knowledge and experience his time here has helped him build greater confidence, sharpen his culinary skills, and discover a deeper appreciation for hospitality.
For Josh, cooking is about more than the food on the plate. It is about creating a memorable experience for every guest, from the moment they walk through the door until the moment they leave. He takes pride in challenging himself daily, supporting the team around him, and continuing to grow into a stronger leader.
As he looks ahead, Josh hopes to use the knowledge and confidence he has gained to inspire the next generation of cooks, just as others have inspired him along the way.
“I'm not going anywhere. I hope. It's been an adventure. We took some casualties over the years. Things got broken. Things got lost. But I wouldn't have missed it for the world.” - Anthony Bourdain
