Meet the Chef

Scott comes from a family heritage in the Restaurant business as his Great Grandfather owned 5 restaurants between Houston and Dallas. His passion for cooking started at a very early age as a latch key kid with 2 working parents, he often came home from various athletic practices starving and quickly started building self-taught, basic skills in the kitchen. He has found memories of cooking with his Grandmother in Houston and learning many of the family recipes and techniques that had been passed down from generation to generation. As a young adult, Scott was always the cook at all family and friend events and holidays while maintaining a very successful career in Sales & Marketing. After lots of encouragement from friends and family, 2023 was the year that Scott really focused on making his passion for cooking a serious side hustle which has now expanded to a full time career shift offering his unique Culinary Experiences and Creations for everyone to enjoy!
