Chef Chaz Lindsay was born and raised right here in Belhaven. He began his culinary career at the age of 15, down the road at Pizza Shack on North State Street. Since graduating from the Culinary Institute of America in 2011, he has worked alongside several award-winning restaurants around the country and abroad, including Colicchio and Sons (sous chef of the taproom), Craft (Tom Colicchio’s flagship as AM sous chef), and Eleven Madison Park (#1 restaurant on San Pellegrino World’s Best Restaurants List in 2017, James Beard Foundation’s Best Chef New York City in 2010).
After leaving New York City, Chaz ventured abroad to become the chef of a restaurant an hour and a half north of Rome, Italy. Now, Chaz has come full circle by opening his new Italian-inspired restaurant, Pulito Osteria, in Belhaven, where it all began for him.
