Chef Maria

Watermark Served Their Last Meal Tonight

January 27, 2024 By Mike Hemmert

Sat., Jan. 27 marks the last Dinner Service for Chef Maria Walusis and her husband Eric at Watermark Restaurant/ Miamisburg. It will be a special evening for a sold out~ 112 patron. Soo many of us have enjoyed the Watermark for the past 9 years.
Open photoAfter Dinner Service, Eric and Maria will be holding a special farewell party to all of their staffs from both Watermark and their sister restaurant~ Backwater Voodoo. We had dinner with our friends on Thursday at Watermark and it was also a packed house. Chef had time (like she always does) to come to our table and visit. You see, we have known Chef since she started making scratch cakes every weekend for Bella Vino’s Wine Bar/ Springboro. Being in the food business myself for soo many years, I knew from the beginning Chef was talented and passionate about one day owning her own Restaurant. More about her background later in the Article.

Our visit on Thur. started at the bar where on every Thur. they offer $10. off bottles of wine. We enjoyed that with our friends! Chef was able to share with us that they had made their decision in Dec. to not renew their Lease that is expiring. She has been actively looking for another new owner and shared that she is talking to some folks. It has been a rollercoaster Jan. for Chef and her family.

Hannah, Michael & Denise

Their daughter Hannah has been working at the restaurant for 5 years. Bartender Denise has been with Maria and Eric on and off since their Soft Opening 9 years ago. Denise is excellent at her craft and personable. We will miss her and Hannah. Michael, one of the Servers has had our table the last 3 times we have been in and we will miss his humor and efficiency.

We look forward to hearing where their path will take them. After handling cakes for Bella Vino’s, Maria met Chef Anne Kearney, owner of Rue Dumaine in Centerville. Maria did a lot of offsite catering with Chef Anne and Chef was mentoring Maria as well. Chef Anne was also a James Beard Award Winner. It does not get any better than that for a mentor! Just like many of us in the food business we are longing to be an Entrepreneur, as we know and experience long hours it is ours…Watermark was born!
According to Chef Maria, the Fine Dining Scene in the Dayton Region has been in somewhat of a downward trend in Sales. Lots of competition and many folks do not have the extra funds to frequent as much as they once did with the economy, inflation and outlook we have all had to deal with. Eric has already started a full time job that he enjoys and the road is wide open for Chef Maria. I bet she is looking forward to some time off with her family!!
Eric and Maria, you will be MISSED and Barb and I look forward to seeing you at the Bella Vino Reunion in March at the Meridian. Cheers to you! 💯

10 ? With Chef Maria from Nibbles

June 22, 2016 By Lisa Grigsby

sxou03rnqvukicxc_400After 20 years as a dental hygienist, Maria Walusis decided it was time for a career change.  So she began to apprentice with accomplished chefs from L’Auberge and  Cumin in Cincinnati, restaurants that have since closed.  She launched her catering business about 6 years ago and then in Jan of 2015 she opened the intimate  800 square feet fine dining eatery Nibbles at 105 S. Second Street, which is the former Hamilton Hotel building in historic downtown Miamisburg.  Seating just over 30 guests inside, patio seating doubles the occupancy when weather permits.

Chef Maria shares that she customizes her menus “each season so you can have a unique food experience and not the same old thing you see all the time.”  With the start of summer, she introduces her 11th menu starting with a shrimp roll, fried green tomatoes and lobster hush puppies.  Entrees include her amazing chile relleno, jerk chicken or a tomahawk pork chop. See the full menu here.

 

Chef Maria agreed to take a break from cooking long enough to answer our 10 ?’s interview:

 

Vodka-cured Salmon with Soy Cubes, Yuzu Gelee

Vodka-cured Salmon with Soy Cubes, Yuzu Gelee

What is your favorite ingredient to cook with?    Hard to pick just one!  I love all seafood and there is always a variety of seafood items on our menus!  The current menu has lobster hush puppies!  I am already craving some.

What ingredient do you dread?
Artichokes are a pain in the butt.  They are prickly, and quickly turn a yucky shade of gray. I love to eat them but hesitate to work with them.

What’s your favorite dish to make?
I have a thing for braised meat of any kind. It’s some comforting and homey and smell amazing when cooking and just falls apart with a fork.

What’s your favorite pig out food?
Definitely pizza!  Pizza is amazing and when you want something late at night it’s the way to go!

What restaurant, other than your own do you like to dine at in the Miami Valley? There are so many great places and great chefs here in Dayton!  I like to support all the chefs as much as I can. Favs are Rue Dumaine, Meadowlark, Wheat Penny and Salar!  Very excited about some of the new places coming to Dayton soon like Basils!

Brown Sugar Shortcake with Rhubarb and Candied Ginger

Brown Sugar Shortcake with Rhubarb and Candied Ginger

What’s your best advice for home chefs?  Cook! Cook! Cook!   Read cookbooks and study and just cook. Try  new things and have fun creating.

If you could invite any 4 guests to a dinner party who would they be and why?
I would invite all the local chefs who could get away from their restaurants!  We all work so hard and its difficult to actually get together for any sort of social time, so to be able to get us all together and cook some great food and kick back together would be awesome, and spoil them a little bit with some great food.

Who do you look up to in the industry and why?
I have had some mentors who have encouraged me along the way to becoming a chef and are a source of support, and answers to my sometimes silly questions.  Chef Anne from RueDumaine has taught me a lot along with Chef Michael from Michael Anthony’s at the Inn in Versailles.  Two amazing chefs with different styles and strengths who have both influenced my cooking and how I run my restaurant.Nibblesoutside

What do you do in the Miami Valley on a day off?  Well, since I haven’t had a “day off” in weeks I’m not sure!   We go out to dinner/drinks when we can to enjoy someone else cooking for us!  WE enjoy spending time with family and friends, our daughters and parents.

Share a kitchen disaster, lucky break or an interesting story:
I was running a private party for another chef as a favor, a private party in a home. As I was trying to get the filet cooked to temp it was taking forever and I finally realized the oven wasn’t working. I opened the door to the pro-viking range and the entire door literally fell off the oven into my arms! I was completely horrified and had to figure out how to finish cooking steaks for 60 guests with no oven!!
