From Ohio to the five-star
kitchens of the world.

Service in progress

Jason Fullilove's story starts in Ohio and runs through the Culinary Institute of America in New York City, then into the five-star kitchens of the Ritz-Carlton in St. Thomas.

A move to California, the heart of the country's largest farming region, reshaped his cooking around one rule: fresh, local, and seasonal, always. From there came restaurants, entrepreneurship, and a reputation built one kitchen at a time.

Along the way: national television, features in the New York Times and LA Times, and a seat at the table in Washington D.C., speaking for California on the bipartisan sustainable seafood aquaculture act.

You can never be the greatest chef in the world. You can only try to be better than you were the day before.
