ABOUT
Chef Zakarian
1983
Zakarian's rise to culinary prominence began in the heart of New York City
After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America, Zakarian headed straight for the famed Le Cirque, where he knocked on the kitchen door to ask for a job, telling the executive chef he would work for free. He started the next day and worked his way up over 4 years to be Chef de Cuisine under Chef Alain Sailhac.
During these formative professional years and while the restaurant closed for summer break, Zakarian staged at places such as Au Quai des Ormes in Paris, Aubèrge de l’Ill in Alsace, The Dorchester in London, Le Chantecler with Jacques Maximin in Nice, and Pierre Orsay in Lyon. In 1987, Zakarian moved with Sailhac to the legendary 21 Club, and then two years later as executive chef, he opened 44 at The Royalton hotel with Ian Schrager, an instant hot spot.
This led him to a second project with Schrager - the Blue Door at the iconic Delano Hotel in Miami Beach in 1994, the hotel and restaurant that spurred the regeneration of South Beach.
