CHEF JERRY WALPER

Off-site catering specialist, seeking event chef gigs

I've worked with some of the biggest and best catering companies in Florida. I can lead or follow with equal enthusiasm, I'm constantly learning, and I enjoy teaching as well. I know how to speak with people, whether they're guests or dishwashers. I have a great work ethic, and a lot of energy and experience.

EXPERIENCE AND PHILOSOPHY

practical and passionate

I've been cooking professionally since I was 20 and I've always enjoyed the challenge of such a complex undertaking. My main focus is efficiency and quality. Whether I'm developing recipes, working on logistics, cooking, scrubbing pots or managing a crew, my goal is always to find simple and elegant methods to achieve the desired result. I'm rarely satisfied with the status quo. Reading my blog posts is the best way to get a feel for how I work.
