Yoav Schverd is an LA based private chef and culinary consultant who specializes in fresh, healthy and tasty food. Hailing from Tel Aviv, Yoav’s food is a culmination of the vast cultures he grew up around, which include many Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, European, Asian and African influences. Like many, perhaps his most significant influences come from his home life. At the age of 4, Yoav regularly went fishing with his father and learned how to catch, and clean a fish before learning how to read. It was seeing his mother prepare the fish for dinner that inspired his love for cooking.
