Jordan credits his mother for helping him develop an appreciation for delicious food at a young age. After chocking down another one of her pan seared beef liver dinners that he'd douse in ketchup to disguise the foul taste (that still haunts him to this day), he vowed then and there to make mealtime a pleasurable event for his family.

Chef Ray has traveled the globe to discover new flavors and expand his palate. He's eaten Thai food in Thailand, French food in France, and Mexican food in San Diego. 

With a culinary philosophy rooted in creativity, quality, and sustainability, Jordan is dedicated to sourcing food from local Costcos only. His menus reflect a deep respect for the seasons, featuring fresh, vibrant flavors that capture the essence of each ingredient.
