David Jones: I have been hands-on since day one. And yes, that includes drywalling, painting, and laying linoleum and carpeting. I've worked in restaurants beginning with my first job in high school. I continued working in restauants through college. And while I earned a degree in Political Science, there was always something more enjoyable about being in a restaurant full of grateful guests having a nice meal and a good time with friends.

Kevin Scott: Kevin is co-owner, bookkeeper, cheesecake baker, bar cookie creator, etc. He has over 25 years experience in the restauant business, most notably as a trainer for Macaroni Grill opening new stores throughout the midwest.

Karla Lawrence: As our Executive Chef, Karla keeps a constant stream of inspiration and creativity flowing through the store. Her dedication to research and continued learning are enviable. From sweets to savories, her passion for her work is evident in the ever expanding offerings you find in our kitchen.

Holli Worsley: Holli will hurt me if I tell you how long she has worked in restaurants. You would never guess by looking at her. She is the reason our salads are so fresh, the Greek Pasta salad always tastes the same, and the little details get covered when we are setting tables for a catering event.

Lea Green: Lea is relatively new to food service, but is a natural at everything we throw at her. She bakes consistently, is great with customer service and is willing to take on any task with a professional attitude. She is just all around indispensable.

Kristen Whelan: Kristen is a wonderfully talented cake decorator and baker. She, as well as Karla is a graduate of the WKCTC culinary program. She is also a dedicated vegetarian and natural foods enthusiast with her own organic baking mix business.

Danny McGowan: Danny comes to us from Nashville where he worked as Kitchen Manager for Calhoun’s. “Professional” is the word that best describes him. His training in a higher volume restaurant where everyone has to work together and communicate clearly to get the tasks done is evident. He is consistent, thorough and dedicated to getting the job done right.

Josh Cooper: Josh came to us with no specific cooking experience but had a willing attitude and desire to build a longer term, more satisfying career. He picks up quick, can hustle well in a pinch, and enjoys the interaction with guests at catering events.
