Welcome to the Summer House Restaurant home page : Chef Bio

"People lose sight of the fact that dining is not entirely about the food or service, it’s about all the little details that go into the entire experience. From the way you're greeted at the door to the fresh flowers on the tables and the beauty and ambiance of the dining room. The thrill of running restaurants is the orchestrating of a seemingly effortless ballet of exceptional food, great wine and flawless service. That’s the total experience, and that’s also the trick!"
