Tourondel served as executive chef at Palace Court Restaurant at the world famous Caesar’s Palace Hotel and Casino, followed by a return to New York City to open Cello.

In the summer of 2016, Cardoz opens Paowalla, a casual modern Indian restaurant in Soho, NY, which will celebrate his Goan-Indian Heritage and showcase his seamless integration of Indian flavors and techniques with local ingredients.
