About the Chef

At 31 years old, Chef Nichole Armstead has packed a lot of experience into her life, and channeled that into her love & passion for food.

Spending her childhood in family kitchens, she found herself cooking for loved ones, 9 siblings & her community. Sunday's were spent with her grandmother, delivering handmade rhubarb pies to the neighborhood and teaching her that good food is another way to show people you care.

Professionally, Chef Nichole began working at 15, leading her passion for food to blossom, and giving her a new goal to create food with "simple, classic flavor". This has held true, with dishes handmade-from-scratch, using all locally sourced produce and specialty product - adding, "...some of my favorite recipes, like my grandma's pickled vegetables, are only made better by the fresh, local product we source from our community."
