Meet The Chef.....
Born in the heart of Manomet, a village of America’s Hometown, Plymouth, MA, Katelin was surrounded by the industry at a young age. She worked at her family’s local ice cream shop and snack bar during the summer. It was there that she found a love and pride for serving people food. In highschool, Katelin was enrolled in the Culinary Arts technical program, and began working at Mirbeau Inn and Spa as a pastry cook. Finding her true love for baking, she continued her education at Johnson and Wales University. After graduating with an Associate Degree in Baking and Pastry and a Bachelor's Degree in Food Service Management, Katelin was promoted to Executive Pastry Chef at Mirbeau. College and work had one major struggle. Being surrounded by a never ending supply of unhealthy options. Chefs work long hours and have an endless supply of food surrounding them. This can be a dangerous mix and can lead to an unbalanced lifestyle. In August of 2019, Katelin made a commitment to herself to change. Small changes were slowly able to become big changes. She started by eating correctly and exercising in a more routine way. Once things became less challenging, she pushed harder and took on more. Katelin became a certified Buti Yoga instructor, an avid hiker, a paleo enthusiast, and a lover of fresh food. During this time, Katelin took a job as the Pastry Chef at Rye Tavern in Plymouth. The Rye Tavern is a local farm to table restaurant that focuses on fresh produce, unique American cuisine, high end desserts. At the Rye, Katelin is able to use her creativity and build desserts that speak to her soul and dignity. Creating the gluten free, dairy free, vegan, and paleo Sweet Potato Pudding is just the beginning of providing healthy dessert options to local food connoisseurs.
