Improv takes center stage at Posh by Lexie Runge

Improv is not just for comedians anymore.  Chef Joshua T. Hebert, owner of POSH Restaurant in Scottsdale, has taken the stage with his “improvisational cuisine,” attracting foodies of all kinds.  At POSH, patrons outline their menus around their specific preferences.  “We cater to all food lovers, and haters,” Chef Hebert said. “We have never been unable do something.”

Guests outline their food preferences, allergies and specific diet requirements on a custom sheet.  Then Chef Hebert and staff get their creative on, inventing and preparing modern and seasonal dishes to meet each person’s needs.  The restaurant is vegetarian and vegan-friendly, and also caters to gluten allergies.  “We always have one or two desserts that accommodate gluten allergies, like a chocolate mousse made from avocado and sweetened with agave nectar,” Hebert said.

POSH offers four to seven courses, ranging from soups and salads to exotic cheeses and sorbets.  POSH takes pride in having one of the best Foie Gras Torchon presentations in the Valley, as well as a daily updated menu, which offers seafood and a variety of meats, ranging from Kobe beef to kangaroo and crocodile.  

POSH’s sustainable initiatives include purchasing local, seasonal produce and serving only the highest-quality meats, seafood and cheeses.  When possible, the restaurant also uses sustainably-raised and harvested products.

Chef Hebert began cooking at age 12, and was working in restaurants at 17.  He is self-taught and has worked with some of the top chefs around the world.  After working in San Francisco and in Tokyo, Hebert returned to Scottsdale, where he met Chef Zac Zaun, co-chef at POSH and they have worked together for the past eight years.
