A Margaritaville state of mind
Chef Lester Dean makes ‘legacy’ move Chef Lester Dean.
In the middle of a pandemic chef Lester Dean made a huge decision, the result of which means he is now working in a dream position as executive chef at Margaritaville Beach Resort Nassau – a job he considers a “legacy” move, as he didn’t walk into an existing resort, but comprises the team working to open the resort from the bottom up.
Dean is the man tapped with overseeing the resort’s dining outlets. His responsibility runs the gamut, from managing inventory, budgeting, menu planning, training, plating, and all kitchen staff from sous chefs to dishwashers – across the entire resort.
