Chef Tyler

Which summer salad are you reaching for first—The watermelon salad with feta cheese, blueberries, red onion, a lime vinaigrette OR The roasted corn salad with black beans, cilantro, tomatoes? 🍉🌽

My catering takes me to some pretty beautiful places. Feeling extra grateful tonight—for the view, the work, and the people who trust me to be part of their special moments.

Days like this remind me how much I love taking food outside the kitchen and helping create a memorable experience.

A beautiful evening at the zoo catering Carpetland’s Animal Crackers–themed summer picnic! 🦁🐒

Getting ready for Bourbon Chronicles.
Chef Tyler is bringing the flavor, the fire, and the full dinner-service energy tonight.

One thing about Chef Tyler — he’s not just cooking food, he’s part of the moment.

People often ask where I come up with my menu ideas. The truth is, a lot of inspiration happens right here on the line. There’s nothing I love more than being in the kitchen, creating great food, and serving this community.

I’m grateful for everyone who continues to support what I do.

What should I cook up next? 👨‍🍳🔥
