ZACH POLLACK
Alimento (Los Angeles, CA)
Born and raised in Los Angeles, Pollack’s culinary curiosity began over 6,000 miles away in Florence, Italy while studying abroad to pursue a degree in architecture from Brown University. Pollack credits the Florentine central market for instilling in him a passion for food so profound, it deflected his career trajectory straight into the kitchen. He returned to L.A. to work for celebrated chef Neal Fraser at GRACE, a temple of New American cuisine. Though Grace’s globally inspired menu and French technique intrigued Pollack, they also confirmed for him that his deepest culinary ambitions lay in Italian cuisine specifically.
