Yonatan Roshfeld (Hebrew: יונתן רושפלד, born 10 January 1969) is an Israeli chef[1] known for his work on television. He was a judge on the television cooking competition MasterChef Israel from the second season to the sixth.[2] He opened the Captain Curry Indian food stall in Sarona Market.[3] He was the food critic in the first Israeli season of The Next Restaurant TV show.[4] He became a partner in the Cafeteria restaurant in the Gindi TLV compound in Tel Aviv[5] and opened a delicatessen in Ramat Gan.[6][7][8] He is perhaps best known as the chef of the Herbert Samuel restaurant in Tel Aviv,[1] which later closed and kosher venues with the same name were opened in other places.[9]

Roshfeld was born in the Ruhama kibbutz in southern Israel in 1969; his father was a baker and his mother was a factory worker. He was a talented musician as a youth and in the Israel Defense Forces, and studied at a New York school. During his musical studies he was drawn to cooking and went to study in France.[10] At first he was at Strasbourg, but could not connect with the heavy cooking there. He then moved to Cannes, studying under two-star Michelin chef Jacques Chibois.[11]
