Blue Duck - Chef Steven Lash

Did you miss me? ....

Being back in Western North Carolina and North Georgia feels settled. Not slow—settled. There’s a difference.

I moved to NC 2 years ago to open a restaurant and build a future with someone i loved. In the long run, neither of those things worked out, and I found myself alone in a town I didn't want to be in. I have no regrets because the lessons I've learned and the experiences I've had are beyond measure.

With that said, it's time to move on and rebuild my life. It's time to start over... again.

I've accepted a position with a restaurant group and will start in early December. Career wise, its a step back but one that i feel at this time in my life is necessary and will give me an opportunity to regroup, get back on my feet, and allow me to focus on my health.

The next chapter begins in Nashville.

As I enter a new phase of my life, I will be returning to my private chef work in whatever capacity I am able to. Along with that, I've decided to rebrand as a reflection of this new chapter.

Please follow my new page to keep up on what's to come!

Greetings All!

I sincerely apologize for my unacceptably slow response time to private chef inquiries. As you may be aware, I recently underwent major surgery, and while my recovery is going well, it's taking me longer than anticipated to find my footing. I am currently working my way through the backlog and appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.

Thank you for your continued support.

Cheers,
Chef Steven
