Hello! This is Chef Greg and this is my first installment of my long awaited and highly anticipated “Food For Thought” blog! First of all, I feel it’s important to let you know that I not only work in recovery but I am in recovery. I have had a lifelong battle with alcohol and drugs and until the last couple years the addiction won every single battle. Not today! Today through God’s grace and mercy I have no desire to drink alcohol or use drugs. Talk about a miracle!
I have been a chef for 15 years and I have covered the culinary spectrum. From 5 star hotels in Nashville and Richmond to yacht havens in the Florida Keys to catering and consulting for new restaurants, and universities… You get the point! I never dreamed a few years ago that I would be working at treatment center- maybe a patient- but not the chef! What a godsend this place has been to me! Not only do I get to be the chef but I get to share my own personal experiences of strength and hope with the guys and each new arrival helps to keep my memory green! To see how they change in their time here is something miraculous to behold. It looks a lot different from this side!
Well this concludes my first installment of my long awaited and highly anticipated “Food For Thought” blog. Now that you know a little about my story we’ll move on to what’s really important. The FOOD!!
Stay tuned and God Bless- Chef Greg
