“Not what we have, but what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance. ”
Hello! I’m chef Mister banks
THE NOMADIC CHEF
I am a personal chef and sommelier. I’m tall, friendly and affordable.
I love food and travel. I was educated and trained at Le Cordon Bleu in London, and worked in kitchens on three continents. While I’m most comfortable in front of the stove, my varied background also include stints as a restaurant manager, sommelier and catering director.
My food reflects those places I have spent the most time: the Pacific Northwest and the Deep South. Think rustic mountain lodge meets home-style comfort food with special emphasis on fresh, local and wholesome ingredients. My truest passion is creating delicious freestyle dishes that put a healthy spin on traditional comfort food.
“My weaknesses have always been food and men — in that order.”
