I moved to Las Vegas in 1986 where I began my career as a dishwasher for Red Lobster. Within a year I joined the staff at the Tillerman Restaurant, a Las Vegas Landmark. By 1994, my skills in the kitchen were recognized and I graciously accepted the position of Head Chef. In 1998, the opportunity to open a seafood tavern experience named Shucks Tavern presented itself; it was at this time where I was given creative latitude in the kitchen. My inventive culinary flair found its way to menu design, which can now be savored at all 3 Shucks Tavern Locations, Montana Meat Companies and of course here at Redstone Grille.
My chef instructor once said “learn all the basics, and then break all the rules.”
