We provide not just great food but a next level experience. We take common dishes and elevate them with unique ingredients that aren’t so common and tell their story. So our style isn’t based off of one type of cuisine

About me

My name is Jamil Shakoor, chef and co owner of Top Tier Workshop. I’m a Johnson&Wales Culinary school graduate. I started cooking when I was 16 and have been cooking for the last 15 years. We started Top Tier Workshop in 2020 by bringing high level private dining experiences to homes. Providing not only cooking and serving food but actually elevating those intimate experiences as much as possible with drink pairings that we curate as well as cultural background knowledge for dishes and ingredients that we make. We do anywhere from 4-10 courses with drink pairings and each menu is carefully crafted for each individual event providing a much more unique and intimate experience.

Experience

My professional career started when I was 20 as a prep cook in a fine dining restaurant like most, but I have also been very driven in my career so that only lasted two weeks. So I slowly began rising through the ranks working at many different high level fine dining restaurants and learning as much as I can until I became a sous chef at 24. I took a year off during the pandemic then worked in a Japanese restaurant as a sous chef for 3 years gaining even more experience. Now currently while also running Top Tier, I am the executive sous chef at a French fine dining restaurant.

Education

certificate

I went to Johnson&Wales University which is prestigious for their culinary program

Recognition & Awards

An Extraordinary Fusion Feast: Highly Recommend Chefs Shakoor and Jamil. I had the incredible opportunity to experience a truly exceptional dining experience curated by Chefs Shakoor and Jamil, and I can confidently say this was a culinary masterpiece. Their ability to fuse African and Korean flavors was nothing short of extraordinary. Each dish was expertly crafted, blending bold spices and fresh ingredients from both culinary traditions in a way that felt innovative yet harmonious. What truly stood out was the chefs’ attention to detail. They made thoughtful adjustments to the menu for my vegan and vegetarian guests, ensuring they had a full and satisfying experience without sacrificing any of the bold flavors or creativity. This level of care and flexibility is a testament to their dedication to providing an exceptional dining experience for everyone. From start to finish, the meal was a delicious journey, with each course offering a perfect balance of spice, texture, and creativity. The thoughtful wine pairings further elevated the experience, complementing the complex flavors in every dish. I highly recommend Chefs Shakoor and Jamil to anyone looking to explore a bold and exciting fusion of flavors. Their professionalism, talent, creativity, and attention to detail make them stand out, and I’m excited to see what they’ll create next. Without a doubt, they deserve a full 5-star rating. Thanks chefs!
