Carlos J. Turla III
Chef de Partie
About
My name is Carlos Turla, a highly motivated culinary professional with solid international experience gained onboard a German cruise ship under TUI Cruises. I built my career from the ground up, starting as a Buffet Attendant and quickly demonstrating strong commitment, discipline, and passion for the culinary field. During my first contract, I invested in my development by studying the German language and completing culinary training to prepare for a transition into the kitchen. Through consistent performance and determination, I successfully moved into a kitchen role within my first contract. Driven by continuous improvement, I actively pursued further training and mentorship from senior chefs, refining my technical skills and kitchen discipline. My dedication led to my promotion from Buffet Attendant to Commis I, where I gained extensive experience in high-volume food production, maintaining strict hygiene standards, and working efficiently in a fast-paced, multicultural environment. I am skilled in food preparation, professional plating, and cooking a variety of cuisines, particularly Western and Japanese dishes. I have extensive experience serving more than 500+ guests per day, ensuring consistent quality, presentation, and timely service even under high-pressure conditions. I am now ready to advance as a Chef de Partie, bringing strong kitchen operations knowledge, advanced plating skills, high-volume production experience, and a commitment to delivering consistent, high-quality dishes. I am eager to contribute to a professional kitchen team in Spain and am fully willing to relocate.
