I couldn’t do what I do without the army of people I do it with.

I’ve been extremely fortunate to work with the best of the best service and support staff on MV, most of whom are also great friends and beautiful humans!

Culture is paramount to hospitality. Creating an environment of positivity and teamwork, with a shared ethos and a common goal, is hard. It’s wayyyyy harder than cooking.

Food is only a small part of what we do. Our task is to create something meaningful and memorable while making it all appear seamless to our guests and clients.

It’s an energy that goes beyond the plate. It’s how people are welcomed, cared for, supported and nourished. That happens best when the people behind the scenes believe in what they’re doing and in each other.

So, thank you! 🥰
