The Bison and The Boar Hires Chef Don Warfe

Bringing quality fine dining to Preble County, The Bison and The Boar is excited to introduce a number of new offerings and initiatives as they welcome long-time area chef, Don Warfe to the back of house.

“It’s been exciting to see how our friends and neighbors have responded to what we’ve introduced with The Bison and The Boar over the last half year,” said owner Dan Appenzeller. “We’re constantly looking for ways to better serve the community and offer something truly unique, which is one of the reasons that we’re so excited to welcome Don as our executive chef.”

With decades of experience as a head chef and consultant for restaurants around the greater Dayton area and as a consultant for Fox’s Kitchen Nightmares, Don Warfe brings with him a passion for utilizing local ingredients.

“One of my biggest areas of focus over the years has been utilizing local seasonal ingredients from farms close by,” Don Warfe said. “I strongly believe that as a chef, it’s my responsibility to provide food that is fresh, healthy, and delicious. Using local ingredients supports our guests and the local economy, and it’s exciting to cook with great ingredients from the neighborhood.”

The Bison and The Boar is also introducing a number of new offerings this late summer with Weekly Specials on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, new Friday lunch and Saturday brunch hours, The Crust and The Vine pie and wine shop, and Preble County Catering Company.
