yesterday was chef dylan’s last shift..

“Chef Dylan started at CP 5+ years ago and has worked every station and more with grace and integrity. He has shown his love and dedication for food and hospitality time and time again. He is the epitome of what it takes to be a good chef- even keeled, organized, enthusiastic, passionate, and empathetic. I am proud to see Chef Dylan move on to bigger life experiences and to spread the love and knowledge of food he learned at CP. We love you Chef D! Good luck!” -

we will all be missing you from the otherside of the planet. it has been a privilege. we love you ❤️
