For more than 50 years Executive Chef Rene Loucel has worked in the food industry. He got his start with an apprenticeship at the Pebble Beach Corporation in California. Chef Loucel says he was lucky to work under some amazing chefs there, receiving excellent french pastry, butcher, and speciality buffet training. From there he moved to Louisiana where he began cooking cajun and creole food. With that experience he now enjoys cultivating dishes that ignite the senses.

In January 2020 he started his new position as the Executive Chef at Starling at San Jose. He explains he knew it was the right fit from the moment he walked in, “I looked around and met with some of the residents and I decided almost instantly.” Chef Loucel says anyone who visits the community will see that it is luxurious. “The building itself is just like a mini resort. It just looks so nice and inviting.” But, he quickly learned what sets Starling at San Jose apart from the rest. “The thing that really makes it special and puts the icing on the cake, so to speak, are the residents themselves. Such a rich history of life, and things they’ve done, and things they can teach you. It’s just great to be able to interact.”
