About Niven:
A pursuit for knowledge was the stimulus and continues to be the driving force behind Chef Niven's career. Patel's first glimpse into the restaurant world was during culinary school, and he was hooked. "I was cooking and working in restaurants the whole time during college". But his passion for cooking came much earlier on, he says, "I have been cooking all my life. I used to make my menus as a child and let my family order, and then I went into the kitchen to cook whatever they wanted."
Patel earned his chops at 3030 Ocean Restaurant at the Harbour Beach Resort and Spa in Fort Lauderdale Florida, working under Chef Dean Max for six years. He then traveled to Italy to learn and cook for six months, returning to the U.S. to be a part of the opening team of Watertable Restaurant at the Renaissance Baltimore. From there, Patel went on to become the Executive Chef at the four-diamond resort Cheeca Lodge & Spa in Islamorada, Florida. Chef Niven then moved to the Cayman Islands to work with Chef Dean Max again, this time at The Brasserie Restaurant and Market. Honing his craft, Chef Niven had the opportunity to experience the farm to table renaissance happening on the island.
Niven joined Chef Michael Schwartz at Michael's Genuine Food & Drink in 2013. He quickly found himself at home, holding the ideal that fresh, simple and pure food is paramount. Working closely with farmers and purveyors, the chef developed a deeper appreciation for the product coming into the restaurant. He began digging in his back yard, cultivating greens, fruits and vegetables. Lovingly referred to as Rancho Patel, bounty from Chef Niven's garden becomes daily specials on the MGFD menu. His passion and curiosity is infectious, with the whole restaurant lighting up when his harvest turns up on the menu, especially in Indian-spiced dishes. For young cooks dreaming of one day becoming a chef, Patel offers some words of wisdom, cultivated over his many years of due diligence, "Be inquisitive. Every time there is something you don't know, research it, look it up". Clearly the success of the highly disciplined Nivenl proves that the chef is guided by his own advice.
