John Denison joins us at a time of
big changes in his life. Having just opened his seafood
bar, Câche Câche, he's on the cusp of marriage to a woman he
met in Paris four years ago while working at Verjus. We will
follow John on his culinary journey from the Portland Meat
Collective and St, Jack, where he met Kate Hill and found a way to
follow her to her beautiful Camont in Gascony. It was
there where French cuisine got into his soul. He moved
over to Barcelona and the world-famous Tickets to gain key
experience in that kitchen before heading to France for four
years.
Just as the pandemic started, John and
Maddie decided to jump from France to Portland, where they both
landed jobs at notable restaurants, St. Jack and Nostrana,
respectively.
Now at Câche Câche, John fuses his
love of French food with his background growing up in the DC area,
delving into the foods of the mid-Atlantic coast.
