The New West Coast With Chef Dave
Avatar image

I’ve covered a lot of ground as a Chef, Food Writer and Photographer. There is little left undone, it’s been a wild ride and I love to talk shop. Currently working statewide focusing on Sonoma and Orange Counties.


My culinary experience is formed around the manifestation of being puro Californio, with indigenous ancestors going back before the Spaniards arrived in Sonoma and the European side sailed from France to settle there in the 1850’s. Those roots run deep in ancestry and attitude. My pallette draws from West Coast Americana, Regional Mexican, Mediterranean, Moroccan and even aspects of Vietnamese. The West Coast experience is in my blood and the purest expression of that for me is via the plate and pen. I also have a gritty, sentimental side that I pour onto each preparation. Every dish has a story and that story deserves to be told.


I pride myself on being super easy to work with, food should be fun and I think good company makes for the very best of ingredients. Let’s have a meal to remember!

The classic “Street Taco” has its own Southern California version, one that captures the spectrum of Latino cultures that all made their way here. It’s a thing. Mine is solid and the house made salsas are plenty serious. Masa for fresh tortillas from El Gallo Giro Market in Santa Ana is, simply put, just divine. All ingredients served in 14 inch cast iron skillets with tortillas hand made to order.
