June 28th, 2008 by Donna
Miraval, the destination spa in Tucson, AZ, recently announced their new executive chef, Chad Luethje, who is resonsible for all food and beverage operations. He comes to Miraval from (most recently) Red Mountain Spa, located in St. George, Utah where he was the Director of Food & Beverage. Prior to that he was the Executive Chef at Teton Mountain Lodge in Wyoming and Cedar Breaks Lodge in Utah.
One of the attributes of a destination spa is the cuisine and Miraval is known for promoting mindfulness and the philosophy that life is all about choice, and it’s evident in their cuisine as well. The dining experience at Miraval is an event in that the flavor, the texture, the creativity of each meal is important. Eating healthy is a choice and destination spas such as Miraval show guests ways to accomplish healthy and delicious meals without sacrificing flavor.
Chef Luethje has over twenty years of culinary and spa cuisine experience
and has also presented at the James Beard House.
And, as someone who travels to Miraval frequently, I am looking forward to a new culinary adventure.
