Fine-dining roots.
A feeling for home.

Trained at Johnson & Wales, with a stage at The French Laundry and time in Norman’s at The Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Cory brings a considered approach to every menu. The foundation is precise technique; the purpose is food you enjoy.

Private estates and over a decade aboard private yachts have shaped the way he works: adaptable, organized and quietly attentive. From a family lunch to a dinner for guests, the details reflect the people being served.
