About

As Executive Chef at Dos Caminos, Ivy Stark brings extensive culinary experience from her time at top restaurants across the U.S., including renowned establishments like The Sign of the Dove and Cena. Her culinary journey began in childhood in Colorado, influenced by her father's career managing luxury hotels. After studying history at UCLA, Stark attended Peter Kump's culinary school (now the Institute for Culinary Education), leading to her initial role at Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger's acclaimed Border Grill.

Returning to New York, Stark honed her skills under chefs Gary Robins and Andy D'Amico, later becoming Executive Sous Chef at Cena alongside celebrated chef Normand Laprise. She further distinguished herself by opening Ciudad in Los Angeles as chef de cuisine, and later served as beverage director and sommelier at Brasserie 8 ½. Stark continued her ascent in culinary leadership roles at Zocalo, Rosa Mexicano, and Amalia, eventually returning to Dos Caminos as Executive Chef. Currently, she explores plant-based, health-focused Mexican cuisine at Ivy Stark MEXology and BKLYNwild at Time Out Market in New York City.

You may need to make a category higher than premium. This sets a bar!

Very fresh and vibrant! We enjoyed this, simple yet really well rounded meal. Does call for heating up, so if you're expecting that, it's closer to a salad.

This was good, I just personally didn't like the plantains. I normally do--i think there's just Something with it being prepped and refrigerated and then sitting there until I eat.

Spiciness seems to vary, sometimes it's almost too spicy for me. Portion size also varies. I hope spiciness and portion size will be more consistent, because this has become my favorite meal.

Very nice. Spicier than I expected but I like some heat. Nice that the tail shells were removed. I don't like having to remove them from my meal.
