Joining Park Hyatt Chicago’s award-winning NoMI Kitchen team as a line cook in 2008, Paul Dobroski has since been named Chef de Cuisine thanks to his relentless drive and work ethic.
Chef Dobroski has shown an enormous amount of respect, appreciation and dedication to his craft garnering accolades and praise within the company. In June, Dobroski, 30, was named the winner of Hyatt’s “The Good Taste” Culinary Competition for the Midwest region where he competed against nine other Hyatt chef’s in a test of their culinary prowess.

Dobroski’s interest in food started young and developed into a cooking philosophy that is rooted in using quality ingredients. He honed his skills by studying classic French-style at the iconic Everest restaurant under the renowned Chef J. Joho and Chef Thierry Tritsch from 2005 to 2008. With the flawless technique learned during his tenure at Everest paired with Chef LaRoche’s inspiration to weave personality and story to his cooking, Dobroski focuses on crafting flavorful, balanced dishes with aesthetically exciting presentations.
