QUESTION ❓
WHY GO TO LOUD OVERCROWDED RESTAURANTS WHERE YOU ARE GIVEN RUSHED SERVICE AND ARE TREATED AS NOTHING MORE THAN AN EMPTY CHARGE. TO ME YOU ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT GUESTS IN THE WORLD & COOKING FOR YOU IS NOT JUST MY PASSION BUT SOMETHING THAT I TAKE VERY SERIOUS WITH GREAT RESPECT & APPRECIATION ❤️ I WANT TO TRANSPORT YOU ON A CULINARY JOURNEY OF DINNER THEATER.... THAT CAN ONLY BE CALLED UNTAMED 😎

❤️ MY AWARD-WINNING CONCEPT❤️
My Goal is to challenge all Michelin | San Pellegrino | Grand Realis Châteaux & James Beard Establishments on what traditional Fine Dining is and what it could be with a fun but very comforting approach that is guaranteed to have you and your guests immersed in a non stop unforgettable Culinary Experience that all of my clients have said is far more greater than any Fine Dining Experience that they have ever had. This truly is the epitome of Dinner Theater that will captivate you & your guests to be inspired beyond great tasting food. LIQUID NITROGEN & FLAME THROWERS & BLINDFOLDS & FOAMS & BUBBLES are just part of the epic experience I want to provide you... The most important part of this is a Chef with the energy to match and execute Culinary Perfection... 🔥 My food is passionately curated by supporting Small Farms and growers who work tirelessly to help me create you the perfect Untamed Experience. I only use USDA Prime House Dry Aged cuts of Beef, Air Chilled never frozen Poultry, Fowl & Seafood, Organic Vegetables. Fresh Hand Made Pastas, House Cultured Butter, Breads & Cheeses as well as Masterful Sauces, Fun Confections & Candies, Fresh House Churned Ice Creams & Sorbets.
