What is your favorite ingredient to cook with?
My favorite ingredient is always cooking with fresh herbs and fresh products. He grows many of these in his own garden and hand picks them for service every day.
What ingredient do you dread?
I don’t enjoy working with processed meats. I find it difficult to a create a solid dish to serve the customer.
What’s your favorite dish to make?
bayou crab crostini
My favorite dish is anything using fresh seafood. It challenges my creativity, preparation and plating skills.
What’s your favorite pig out food?
I like eating all kinds of fresh bread.
What restaurant, other than your own, do you like to dine at in the Miami Valley?
I enjoy going to different restaurants in the Miami Valley, whether old school dining or getting to try something new. It keeps my own cooking energized.
What’s your best advice for home chefs?
Don’t be afraid to try new things. You only get better by challenging yourself, taking risk and practicing.
If you could invite any 4 guests to a dinner party who would they be and why?
This would be my son, daughter and two best family friends because they’re not afraid to give me honest feedback and criticism. They also are intolerant to certain products which challenges me to cook something different and full of flavor they can fully enjoy.
Who do you look up to in the industry and why?
Chef Adrian’s FISH & CHIPS!
I have followed the career of Erin French, an American Chef residing in the
state of Maine. Her unique focus on fresh ingredients and farm to table has created a waiting list of customers seeking a unique dining experience at The Lost Kitchen. Her story is inspiring, and has earned recognition as a semifinalist for the James Beard Award for Best American Chef in 4 times. Dining here is truly a goal of mine in the future.
What do you do in the Miami Valley on a day off?
I enjoy going to used book stores looking for interesting and unique collections of international recipes. I enjoy shopping and a good cup of coffee – there are a
number of unique places to try in our city.
Share a kitchen disaster, lucky break or other interesting story:
I had the opportunity to meet Charlie Chloe when he was opening a new business at the Greene. It was the first time I was able to fully experience and work with all types of Asian foods, something I truly enjoyed and often still find inspiration in my cooking today.

Dayton’s Best Bloody Mary Has Been Decided
Today at Top of the Market over 300 people came together to taste and judge the Bloody Mary’s put up by local bars and restaurants! This event was first started by Planned2Give at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds in 2017. For the 8th edition of this event the cocktails were quite varied. Some were spicy, some were bold, some were even good for you, as they were chocked full of juiced vegetables.
We welcomed back Mack’s Tavern, which was the winner of our very first showdown. Her
cocktail placed 3rd. Also back was Scott Conrad, who tied for the win the 2nd year with Mack’s.
Scott then when on to win the 3rd year. He has since launched and markets Rad’s Bloody Mary Mix at the retail level so was there for tastings, not competition.
Meridien Uptown, one of Centerville’s newest businesses won the Best Garnish award and placed 2nd in the Best Bloody Competition.
And for the 2nd year in a row L oose Ends Brewing Companywalked away with best booth decor and Dayton’s Best Bloody Mary, which came with a $500 cash prize and bragging rights for another year!
The crew from Loose Ends dedicated their win to Kent Loose, the owner of Loose Ends Brewery who passed away this past October. They said he really loved Bloody Mary’s and pushed for them to enter last year.
Clink, Sip & Savor at Uptown Centerville’s Newest Spot!
Rhonda & Matt Hiatt’s dream is coming true! Tomorrow night they open Meridien Uptown in Centerville. They describe it “as a place where community and culture intersect to create unforgettable experiences…”
They’ve totally remodeled the old Sweeney’s Seafood, opened it up and given it an upscale elegance. Rhonda says they created an environment where they can bring all the tastes of the world from their travels together and share with friends and new friends
The runway filled with small bites tonight
Their food menu will rotate with small bites, salads and sandwiches. Here’s the opening menu:
They’ll take reservations for tables but the runways, which seats about 30 will always be open seating. They seat about 130 guests, in addition to patio seating when weather cooperates.
With a fully stocked bar, I noticed lots of high end bourbons, Matt shared they’d “be a great spot for when you didn’t want to drive downtown to The Century Bar.” The cocktail menu will change frequently, paired to match their bites menu.
Kayla Thorp is their Special Events coordinator and you’ll want to reach out to her to rent the space for private events when they aren’t open.
