Chef in Portland, Oregon

Adam first found his way to food through growing asparagus and strawberries in his family’s garden. His dad encouraged experimentation with flavors in the kitchen at an early age, allowing Adam to explore his creativity and expand his palate. A professional career in both music and food has taught him a lifetime’s worth of lessons in the power of creativity, and the healing energy of sharing his passion with others. Adam has had a spectrum of professional training as a chef, from 5-star Italian restaurants to beloved neighborhood bakeries. Most recently he has poured his creativity into a delicious baked good called a bialy, with his pop-up bakery 'Bialy Bird". For Adam, working with fruits and veggies at their peak ripeness is not simply just about heightened flavor. It is a way of honoring the seasons, a way of harvesting ethically from the earth, and a way to ensure the greatest nutrition for the consumer. Adam is excited to provide you and your family with personal chef services including meal and menu prep, grocery shopping, and full-scale event catering.
