Pablo Mellin, Chef de Cuisine

Pablo Mellin Chef Mellin was born and raised in Mexico. He moved to the United States in 1986 and began his culinary career as a line cook at the Hog’s Breath Inn Restaurant in Carmel, California. As his career progressed, he began working in other fine dining restaurants on the Monterey Peninsula, eventually coming to Pebble Beach in 1991.

Pablo became the lead supervisor at Roy’s in 2000, where he honed his skills in Hawaiian-fusion cuisine. In 2005 he was promoted to Sous Chef, where he gained a wealth of knowledge in Japanese products, unique flavors and presentations. In 2008, Chef Mellin took over the reins of Roy’s at Pebble Beach.

Chef Mellin participates in numerous local special events such as Cooking for Solutions, Pebble Beach Food & Wine, and The Harvest Farm to Table, to name a few, working predominantly with local and sustainable products.

Pebble Beach Resorts.
