i. Biography
His cooking is organized around the arc of a full menu: “To a chef, a menu is like a story, and it’s very hard to tell that story through just an appetizer or entrée or dessert.”
The Essentials Oppold studied at Scottsdale Culinary Institute in 2002. He was Executive Chef of Atlas Bistro in Scottsdale, United States, from 2014 to 2020.
In Their Words “Yes. I think they call it “culinary art” for a reason. Food is our medium and the plate is our frame. If it’s not art, what is it? It’s just nourishment. I view us as artists, and a restaurant is basically our gallery.” “I specialize in multi course dining so it was an easy platform to transfer over to doing six courses in the homes of guests.”
