Chef Craig Venable comes from La Verne California, 35 miles east of Los Angeles. His earliest memories are Sunday cookouts with his family and friends. He moved to Atlanta in 2008 but quickly became homesick for those cookouts. So to combat his homesickness he started his own cookout for friends in Atlanta.
He fell in love with art of cooking as he took on full responsibility for preparing those cookout. This led him to enroll in Le Cordon Bleu Atlanta, graduating in 2012. After graduation he began to quickly move up the ranks working for some of Best chefs in Atlanta.
