Partner & Executive Pastry Chef | Beatrix Locations & Beatrix Market (Lettuce Entertain You)
During my career, I’ve come to understand that when creating recipes, you won’t always get it the first time – it’s ok to fail, that’s how we get better!

Advice from Yasmin Gutierrez

Quotes about career path, skills, and teamwork from an industry leader.
I keep my team motivated by bringing them new ideas to test out, teach new recipes, and give them the opportunity to work at other Lettuce restaurants featuring different cuisines to help break up their routine and keep them inspired!
In the restaurant industry, it’s definitely about finding the work/life balance.
I regularly make sure to spend time with my family, and set aside time for travel and personal trips.
I find inspiration when dining at new restaurants, traveling to other markets that my restaurants are not in, and exploring what’s trending in the media.
When hiring, instead of just seeking candidates with all the "skills," I look for someone who is passionate, ambitious, and ready to learn.
Don’t wait until tomorrow!
I always try to be proactive and stay ahead – you never know what may come up the next day.
