Featuring Jeff Foresman, Executive Chef of Zocca Restaurant at The Westin Riverwalk
Hailing from Lancaster County, PA, Chef Jeff Foresman began his culinary career at Longwood Inn as a line cook. He has extensive experience in the hotel restaurant industry, working in eight different Hyatt hotels from Hawaii to Washington D.C. since 1987. A graduate of Johnson and Wales University, his philosophy on food, "is to use the freshest, most wholesome ingredients, focusing on locally found products and allowing the ingredients to speak for themselves. I do not believe in masking natural flavors with excess butter, cream or fat. My cuisine is uncomplicated, yet refined." To ensure the use of the freshest ingredients possible, he went so far as to pioneer a chef's rooftop garden at a convention hotel housing three restaurants.
