"As a self-taught chef, I'm thrilled to witness the growth in entrepreneurial food purveyors sprouting up acoss the country and the passion for crafting speciality products focused on organic and locally-sourced ingredients. At my restaurants, The Hudson House, The Tripel, and Playa Provisions we're dedicated to utilizing every product to its fullest ability - another aspect of the artisanal movement that I connect with."
