He is known for his extraordinary skill at transforming simple foods into artful culinary masterpieces and is widely regarded as one of the country's top chefs and entrepreneurs. In addition to his duties at Zahav, Chef Solomonov is a partner in Federal Donuts, Dizengoff, Goldie, and Abe Fisher.

In 2017, Solomonov and the Israel Ministry of Tourism (IMOT) created a partnership to champion Israel’s extraordinarily diverse and vibrant culinary landscape. Along similar lines, Solomonov starred in the documentary feature film, “In Search of Israeli Cuisine,” which explores Israel’s culturally diverse culinary landscape. The film is now streaming on Netflix.
Before opening Zahav, Chef Solomonov was the Executive Chef at Marigold Kitchen which he and business partner Steven Cook co- owned until 2009. Born in Israel and raised in Pittsburgh, Solomonov frequently travels back to Israel. He is also an avid snowboarder, surfer, and overall fitness fanatic.

Jewish Family Service of Greater Harrisburg - Jun 13 2022

Our experience from start to finish was really outstanding. I have worked with several other similar organizations in the past but this team is really top notch. They were able to secure the speaker we wanted at a good price. Information was sent quickly. They checked in frequently to make sure we were okay with preparations and have a clear timeline of what to expect. Michael was absolutely wonderful. Kind, personable, funny and really very nice with everyone who wanted to interact with him. He did stayed longer than necessary and made sure everyone had an opportunity to speak with him and even posed for pictures. I highly recommend him and All American Entertainment.

This was my first time working with a celebrity chef, and All American Entertainment made the process straight forward and easy. Thank you!

Thank you for everything with Chef Michael! He was amazing with the crowd, worked the room perfectly. A lot of the guests said they came to this event just for his food because they can’t get a reservation at Zahav for 60 days out! The food was DIVINE! Both of them were so down to earth and patient, it made working with them that much easier!
