L-1B Dismissed — Restaurant: did not establish the beneficiary's position as a Head Chef

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary's position as a Head Chef requires specialized knowledge. The director originally denied the petition on this basis, and the petitioner's arguments on appeal, which centered on 'exclusive, secret and proprietary recipes,' were insufficient to overcome the director's finding.
