She has worked at Thomas Keller’s Ad Hoc and The French Laundry, one of the top-rated restaurants in the world, before making her way back to the Chicago area. Since our opening in 2021, Chef Grace has been a regular instructor in our Makerplace Kitchen, sharing the secrets to her signature composed, but not complicated cooking.
