Chef A Oliveras
Chef At Home In Arlington
Get to know me better
I am a reflection of my mother as a respectful, responsible, committed, kind, caring & professional team leader. I expect the same of others!
I have worked, as chef de cuisine &/or executive chef, in the kitchens of international law firms, government contractors, elder care facilities, Fortune 500 headquarters, 1st/Business Class Airlines’ Lounge at Dulles Int. Airport, women owned independent tea house, conference centers, small restaurant/catering group in WDC and The National Geographic Society and the Embassy of Australia, a tenant at NGS.
I worked with people from all over the world & have stayed in touch with many over the years. I try to learn & teach one thing every day & thanks to my kitchen colleagues & team I do most weeks. My expectations for my Kitchen Team begin with mutual respect, cleanliness, safety & readiness, knowledge of ingredients, open communication and curiosity. These define me as a cook daily and make unit cohesion an important aspect of having fun in the kitchen!
More about me
For me, cooking is...
one way to introduce who I am and involve others in our ongoing conversation.
I learned to cook at...
Just outside of my mother’s kitchen (no one was allowed in!) and fervently watching Julia Child on tv.
A cooking secret...
Respect the ingredient, understand the dishes’ history and define the final plate with the clients’ vision.
