Meet the Chef...
Kelsey grew up in a small coastal town, where her family ran a local bakery. As a child, she would spend hours in the kitchen, watching her mother bake fresh bread and pastries. Her father was a fisherman, so they always had access to the freshest seafood, and she developed a deep appreciation for locally sourced ingredients. She fell in love with cooking at a young age, and after high school, she moved to the city to attend culinary school.
After working in various renowned kitchens, Kelsey decided to open her own restaurant, a cozy but modern space that focuses on seasonal, sustainable dishes. It quickly gained attention for its vibrant flavors and inventive twists on traditional dishes.
