AI Doppelganger: Bringing Training to Life Jack Woznick, Director of Training & Development, Toro Toro Toro, BelAir Cantina
Objective
Creating engaging training content can be challenging—especially when the most recognizable figure in your organization prefers to stay behind the scenes. At BelAir Cantina, Chef Noe Zamora is the face of the brand and the mastermind behind its menus, but he doesn’t prefer being filmed or recorded. The

challenge? How to feature his expertise in training materials without requiring him to step in front of a camera.
How it Works
Enter the AI doppelganger! Using ElevenLabs for AI-generated voice cloning and Studio DID for AI-driven avatars, BelAir created a virtual version of Chef Noe. By having the chef read a short script, Jack trained the AI to replicate his voice, allowing him to generate new audio clips on demand. The AI-powered avatar—modeled as a bitmoji to keep things lighthearted—delivers menu descriptions, cooking techniques, and operational training in Chef Noe’s exact voice and style. This solution enables quick updates to training materials, eliminates scheduling conflicts, and ensures that the restaurant’s most influential voice is always present—without requiring Chef Noe’s direct involvement.
Results
With an investment of about $25 a month and a simple workflow, the AI doppelganger has revolutionized training content at BelAir Cantina. Training videos can now be created in minutes, keeping up with frequent menu changes while maintaining consistency in communication. This technology not only saves time but also makes training more engaging, dynamic, and scalable—proving that AI can be a game-changer in restaurant learning and development.
