We’re so excited to welcome and introduce our new Executive Chef, Chris Chafe. We first met Chris at the Eat the Hill culinary event in Clarenville this past winter, as we were delighted by his unique, delicious creations. We know that our guests will love his newly created Spring Menu, which we’ll be featuring every Thursday through Sunday throughout May.
Born and raised in St. John’s, NL, Chris Chafe earned the role of executive chef at age 22 as a result of hard work and passion. Chris began his culinary career working part-time as a dishwasher while attending university, and from there, he decided to pursue cooking full-time.
Completely self-taught, Chris honed his skills through apprentice work with experienced chefs. When he is not spending time with his wife and two-year-old son, Chris absorbs any information he can through television, recipe books, the Internet and other local chefs. Competitor on Food Networks show Top Chef Canada and winner of the silver medal at Gold Plates St. John’s 2011, Chris continues to challenge himself by participating in local charity and community events.
