Description
My name is Lechay (Lychee),
I’m originally from Israel, but have worked around the world for most of my previous career as an producer and manager for live entertainment arena shows and a theatre director.
During the COVID quarantine- when I was in Israel , and with no new projects in the foreseen future, I started growing some vegetables and herbs in a small garden. The way out from the mild depression I suffered was through cooking and sending my creations out to the world – to find connections in the lonely times of lockdown.
This had opened a door to self growth journey thow cooking and healthy eating culture and awareness.
My family is spreaded around the globe, my father is still in israel- teaching and showing the country to tourist groups , my mother s working as a tour guide for Israelis abroad- from europe to the far east , my sister – pharmaculture farmest, is currently living in the canary islands trying to build a community resort for healing the body and mind – based on locally foraged and grown medicina.
I’m a strong believer in sustainability, seasonal cooking, organic lifestyle , slowing down the pace of life, human connections, learning constantly, the power of community, and the search for one׳s tribe.
Work experience:
Worked as a chef and private caterer in Israel ,
Worked as a line cook/Chef de partie- in belgium – METEOR restaurant by chef Maarten van Essche,
Worked as a line cook/Chef de partie- in Belgium – MAGMA restaurant by chef Maarten van Essche,
Worked as a line cook/Chef de partie- in Iceland – SLIPPURINN restaurant by chef Gísli Matthías Auðunsson.
I’m trying to have no expectations – rather than the practice of growth mindset , gratitude, and finding connections that will help me better myself and better the planet and what it gives us…
Best of all the best ,
lychee.
