As Chef Pat joins the team, he continues to elevate the restaurant’s seasonal dishes, pairing each with a prized vineyard. Chef Pat has more than twenty years of culinary experience and continues to find inspiration from his family. He fondly remembers growing up with his grandmother’s recipes and preserves. This memory guides Chef Pat in creating a wholesome and generous farm-to-table experience.
