Crusted Salmon

Started at a 5 star hotel at the age of 15 to pay for school I started as a steward then rose to breakfast chef… once I started in the kitchen the heat, passion, emotions and creativity in the chef’s world kept me from going back to my school desk.

Never worked in Michelin star restaurants although I worked under chefs who had worked there.

Although every chef would love to have a star including myself (because that is the highest honor for a chef) I still believe they are slightly overrated.

I find my inspirations in reading, art & experimentation but mostly from the world's traditional cuisines and older generations that teach us younger cooks how to cook.
