For Chef Debbie Gold, inspiration has never come from just one kitchen.

Years of traveling, tasting, and experiencing cuisines around the world helped shape the way she approached reimagining the menu at VU. In our first episode of Behind the Pass, Chef Debbie takes us into the kitchen to make our Salt & Pepper Shrimp while sharing how those experiences continue to influence what lands on the plate today.

Come behind the pass with . This is only the beginning.

Meet the woman behind the VU.

Chef Debbie Gold has spent her career creating food with intention, curiosity, and a point of view all her own. Now, she’s bringing that experience to the kitchen at VU Rooftop.

Over the next few weeks, we’re stepping behind the scenes with Debbie to explore her story, her approach to food, the team beside her, and what it takes to bring the VU menu to life.

This is Chef Debbie, beyond the plate.
