About Us

 Adopted from South Korea, John spent his early childhood in the western suburbs of Illinois. During his teenage years, after relocating to Wisconsin, he became deeply interested in culinary shows and literature. His grandparents served as a significant source of inspiration for him. As a young teen, he worked as a fry cook at Culvers in Grafton, Wisconsin. Soon after he joined the U.S. Army and lived in Alaska. In 2016, John returned to Wisconsin and has since led teams at various establishments, including Bibingers, Timmers resort, Pizza Man, and Coco's Seafood & Steakhouse. He has gained recognition as a chef in the expanding culinary scene. In 2024, John and wife Crystal decided to launch their own restaurant concept, focusing on an elevated dining experience with small plates. In his leisure time, John loves spending time with his three dogs, Blue Buddy, and Bruno. You can also find him at a local pub called Henry's or working offsite events during his days off.  

Chef Tim spent his childhood in Wisconsin, where he developed a love for various artistic hobbies like drawing, playing the piano. These creative pursuits later inspired his journey to become a Chef. He was incredibly fortunate to grow up with amazing Southern Cuisine, lovingly  prepared by his mother, grandmother, and great aunt-all of whom have roots in Mississippi. Their influence has greatly shaped the style of his food he creates. Over the past 10-12 years, Chef Tim has worked his way up in the culinary world, starting as a dishwasher and now Executive Chef!
