OUR TEAM
DEREK
CLOUGH
Executive Chef
Despite working for well regarded and acclaimed chefs, and traveling extensively to find knowledge and hone his craft, he is modest and holds disdain for personal recognition.
His mentors of the past made him who is today, but they and their lessons remain in the past.
Today, this restaurant, holds none of the faces of the past.
He, and his team, forge forward in this moment, in this place.
