ABOUT THE CHEF:
Neal's interest in food began in his mother's kitchen at the age of 6, and continued in the professional kitchens he began working in at the age of 18. Early on he developed an interest in cuisine involving vegan, natural, healing, and healthy foods. After working at a variety of different restaurants, he attended and graduated the Natural Gourmet Institute for Food and Health in 2005. In 2006 he became the Executive Chef of Pure Food and Wine, New York City's premier fine dining vegan raw food restaurant. His personal culinary philosophy includes support of individual and community well being and health, which includes a focus on fresh, local, organic, and bio-dynamic foods and wines. He is a contributor to the cook books Living Raw Food and New York Cooks: 100 Recipes from the City's Best Chefs. He has been featured on The Learning Channel, and his cuisine has received praise in Forbes Magazine, Taschen's New York, Time Out New York, and The Michelin Guide, among other publications. Most recently Neal has been consulting on a spa/restaurant property in Bali, Indonesia, and doing freelance private chef work.
