Your Private Chef, Devin
...The real purpose of striving toward perfection becomes clear: to make people happy, that is what cooking is all about.
borrowed from Thomas Keller of French Laundry fame
Devin grew up on a farm in Nebraska and learned the value of hard and efficient work from a young age. His first job, at 15, was a sandwich shop to pay for gas for his car; dad had a padlock on the farm gas! After high school, he continued working in restaurants, thriving on the adrenaline, camaraderie, and degeneracy in the kitchen. He then began to travel - the Virgin Islands, Atlanta, San Diego, Denver, Omaha, and Lincoln - dipping his toes in cuisine from around the world.
In Lincoln, Devin stepped up and took a job as Chef de Cuisine at an exclusive, farm to table, fine dining restaurant. He was very lucky to work for 2 incredible chefs who taught him what being a Chef really meant - using the best available ingredients and techniques to make people happy with food. From there he went to upper management at a world famous golf club in the Nebraska Sandhills, then to Halyards as the Executive Chef on here on SSI. With over 2 decades of experience, you can trust that Devin will bring only the finest cuisine with global inspiration to your table.
