“For me, cooking is an expression of the relationship that I have with the growers, with my team and with the people who enjoy our food. I want to honor all of the hard work that it takes to grow and produce these ingredients; I want to reflect that care and dedication in the effort that my team and I put into each dish. Our guests have chosen to make special memories in our restaurant and in each bite – we want to capture the honor that it brings us. It is a hand-to-hand relationship, from the farmers, to our restaurant, to our guests. It puts an emotion into the food – a passion that our guests can taste.” - Head Chef, Gabriel Garcia
