Meet Carl Schaubhut, Eat Fit Chef Ambassador and DTB Chef|Owner
DTB's chef|owner Carl Schaubhut is the official Chef Ambassador for Ochsner's Eat Fit initiative. Schaubhut feels personally connected with this program through his battle with cancer. He has spent two days a week over the past three years at Ochsner Medical Center receiving treatment. "From the oncologists to nurses to physician assistants and dietitians, it's just an incredible place to have in our backyard. They have become my second family," says Schaubhut. "The cool part about this partnership is that it happened very organically. As a chef, I worked closely with Molly Kimball, Registered Dietitian with Ochsner's Eat Fit NOLA program, and shortly after that, I was diagnosed with cancer. I reached out to Molly to help with nutrition - who else better to assist as a resource for the fight of my life? A lot of things needed to change - and it's not a temporary thing; this has been a lifestyle change for me."
Eat Fit connects Ochsner with local restaurants and the surrounding community to support the common goal of a healthier city, a stronger community, and an even better place to live. The beauty of Eat Fit is that it takes the burden off of the guest who wants to order healthfully - they don't feel like they're imposing, like they're being "that diner" who's special-ordering everything. Eat Fit essentially does the work for you and you can check out the menu ahead of time on the Eat Fit smartphone app to see the dishes and the full nutrition stats before you even walk in the door.
"The Eat Fit seal on restaurant menus is just one component of what Ochsner's Eat Fit initiative is all about," says Kimball. "Connecting with and educating our community, and having the opportunity to work closely with many of our chefs and restaurant teams to support them as they deal with their own health challenges, like chef Carl, has been far more rewarding than I ever could have expected."
"As someone who's battling cancer, I understand first-hand that the more funds, support and awareness that this type of community-wide wellness initiative can raise means that we can have even more resources available to help us live our strongest, healthiest lives," says Schaubhut. "This is a very rewarding experience for me and I am looking forward to continuing working with the Ochsner's Eat Fit program."
