Collin Kaskel, Chef de Cuisine

Chef Collin runs the show behind West 14th’s kitchen door and certainly knows how to turn up the heat. His career began in his hometown in Dallas, Texas, at the tender age of thirteen in a small, family run café where he began learning the tricks of the trade. It was here that he had discovered his undying passion for the culinary arts and his love for food.

Chef Collin’s relentless thirst for exploring new gastronomic opportunities, his love for traveling and discovering new cultures and their unique culinary methods have led him to work in many formidable and respectable establishments in America and the UAE. When he is not busy cooking up a storm in the kitchen, you will see him working the restaurant floor and chatting to his guests. “Cook with passion and a sense of urgency” is his personal mantra and needless to say, he means some serious steak business.
