Joshua Morrow
Chef
Chef Joshua Morrow comes from a family of self-starters and his culinary career began as a dishwasher in a small restaurant. He was hungry to get experience in a kitchen and after a few months, he was promoted to line cook until he was acquired by a small mom and pop restaurant.
Throughout this time, he enrolled at The Culinary School of Fort Worth and went on to graduate with honors. After culinary school, Joshua was promoted with a sous chef title and went on to a lead chef promotion. He enjoyed this excellent experience in leading a team, co-crafting the menu, and managing food purchasing, but still had a desire to learn under a more experienced chef to hone his craft.
Joshua’s specialties are crafting charcuterie boards and curing his own meats. Joshua enjoys going out to eat and trying new restaurants, spending time at church and spending time with his family.
