Arturo Paz prides himself on being a creative culinary voice in the ever
changing world of haute cuisine.
By way of Miami Beach, New York and Los Angeles, Paz brings his magic to
the paradise island of Culebra, Puerto Rico, as Executive Chef of Bahia
Marina Hotel three restaurants; Dakity, Shipwreck and Cayo.
With a bachelor’s degree in culinary arts from the prestigious Johnson
and Whales University in Providence R.I., Arturo continues his quest to
find and master the most cutting edge culinary techniques. Moving onward
and upward he spend time in New York City as head chef of the Mango Tree
Café in the Village, as Executive Chef of the ultra trendy Baleen in
Miami Beach Grove Isle and most recently as Corporate Chef of Republic
Restaurant and Lounge, the most recent creation of restaurateur Mikayel
Israyelyan in L.A.
Back to his roots in Puerto Rico and more significantly to Culebra,
where he vacationed with his family many times as a youngster, Arturo
Paz finds a niche in which to orchestrate his talent. Directing three
different restaurants at Bahia Marina Hotel, all with different
ambiance and menus, Arturo looks to tune his expertise in harmony with
the fresh local sea food and produce in order to deliver Bahia Marina
guests a concert of flavors in haute Caribbean cuisine.
Paz cuisine has been featured in the Ocean Drive Magazine, the San Juan
Star and The Miami Herald. He has written a book, “Cool Concoctions” and
has hosted a TV show “Casa Club TV” (part of MGM Latino). When not in
the kitchen he enjoys fishing, scuba diving and surfing. |
