Today, I'm interviewing Chef Josh Walbolt, a chef whose most recent position was at Eleven Madison Park. Chef Josh started his illustrious culinary career in high school where he was a two time Minnesota state champion in a culinary arts competition called ProStart, a competition that is sponsored by the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation. After winning at state, Chef Josh went on to compete at the national level, which cemented his determination to become a professional chef. After high school, Chef Josh honed his skills through a wide variety of experiences around the country, and has done everything from being a Chef de Cuisine, a catering company owner, a competitor in cooking battles against James Beard and Michelin starred chefs to mentoring future chefs in the very program that jumpstarted his career. He's also been a nominee for the Rising Star Chef award by the Charlie's Award, an annual event that celebrates the exceptional contributions of the Twin Cities area's restaurant and food service industry.
