Meet the Team
James Flowers
Chef de CuisineOriginally a musician, James was first drawn to Austin for its reputation as a live music hub, but eventually his musical instruments were replaced by tools of the culinary trade. Working his way up through several well-known Austin restaurants – Asti Trattoria, Wink and Cipollina, to name a few – James acquired a deep appreciation for Asian, Italian, southern and Texan cuisine. He joined Four Seasons Hotel Austin as a cook in 2011, moving into roles of greater responsibility until his promotion to the restaurant's lead position, chef de cuisine, in July 2016.
Richard Sandoval
RestaurateurDuring the past 18 years, Richard's career as a chef-restaurateur has evolved encompass being a culinary consultant, television personality, cookbook author and brand ambassador. RS Hospitality is now a leading restaurant group with over 45 restaurants around the world. Richard combines authentic Latin ingredients with international flavors and inventive techniques. His methods create new and unexpected cuisines such as modern and coastal Mexican, Latin-Asian, Peruvian and Pan-Latin.
Amanda Pallagi-Naim
Executive Pastry ChefGrowing up cooking with her grandmother in rural Texas, Amanda's natural craftiness and prowess in the kitchen turned into a full-fledged business in high school. Despite this early success and subsequent roles in restaurants, Amanda didn't consider culinary school until 2008 when she joined Four Seasons Hotel Austin as a restaurant hostess. Drawn inexorably to the pastry shop, she was taken under the wing of the executive pastry chef. Over the next five years, Amanda took on increasing levels of responsibility before her promotion to executive pastry chef in late 2015.
