History buff, musician, and chef… Mark Piepkorn is one talented individual. Before becoming a chef, Piepkorn was on stage behind a drum set. He would work in kitchens just to pay the bills. Eventually, his love for cooking would outweigh his passion for music. After a few years working his way up from dishwasher to line cook, Mark decided to attend the International Culinary School at the Art Institute – Inland Empire. Chef Mark graduated with high honors and went on to work for places such as the Mission Inn (Riverside, CA), Root 246 (Solvang, CA), and the Black Cat Tavern (Los Angeles, CA).

Chef Mark believes that through his dishes he can also tell a story of inspiration and geography, love and memories. Chef Mark believes that no matter what type of food, restaurant or job, that it is always important to do the best you can with the highest of standards.
