Growth happens when chefs step outside their own kitchens and learn from one another. Through our Guest Chef experiences, Parkhurst chefs visit other sites to host Pop -Ups, collaborate with new teams, and share their culinary point of view. This allows chefs to bring fresh ideas to guests while growing their craft. These moments are about more than the menu; they`re about mentorship, confidence, and building skills through real-world experience.
Culinary development doesn`t stop at training programs; it lives in our kitchens, across our communities, and through meaningful collaboration between chefs who are connected with heart.
Throughout February, we’re honoring Black History Month by celebrating the Black culinarians on our team who bring culture, creativity, and purpose to the table every day.
Their passion and influence shape our dining experiences and how we connect through food daily; we’re proud to recognize and celebrate their impact, this month and always.
Hey, @culinaryinstituteofamerica! 👋
Chefs Tim and Dan are holding it down at the Parkhurst booth today and between the two of them, they bring 45 years of Parkhurst experience (aka, they’ve seen it all and still love it here).
Chef Dan leads the kitchen at one of our approved externship sites at @rmudiningservices, and together they’re here to talk real careers, real growth, and what life after graduation actually looks like. Plus, we’ve got a Wok-inspired giveaway you’ll definitely want to check out 👀🍜
If you’re a future chef looking for a place that invests in your craft and your career, we`ll see you soon!
Big game energy, chef-made 💪 From wings to pizza and other fan-favorite snacks, our teams know how to bring the hype and show up with a great game-day spread.

This Black History Month, we recognize and celebrate the lasting contributions of Black chefs, leaders, and communities whose influence continues to shape our culture and food.
From timeless recipes to industry-changing innovation, their influence is woven into how we all come together at the table, today and every day.

Today is National Have Fun at Work Day! We`re celebrating what happens when culinary creativity is encouraged, supported, and shared.
Our Chef`s Table initiative gives chefs across our organization the freedom to step outside the everyday menu and bring their ideas directly to guests through Pop-Up experiences that showcase bold flavors, personal inspiration, and true craft. From New Orleans gumbo to shrimp curry and sticky toffee pudding, these moments turn dining into a connection.
At Parkhurst, fun at work isn`t accidental, it`s built into a people-first culture where chefs are trusted to create, express themselves, and lead with heart.
