To improve his skills, he has worked at a number of local bakeries and restaurants including the Terrace Restaurant at Longwood Gardens. Glen is currently working at Gilda’s Biscotti for Gilda Doganiero, a former pastry chef at Brasserie Perrier.

Radwan has been the Chef/ Owner of The Spicy Chef for the past 3 years. He epitomizes the fresh and creative future of “Mediterranean Cuisine”. Radwan's diverse talents and successes come as no surprise to those who know him. Growing up in Damascus, the City of Jasmine, the Oldest City in the World, he spent hours in the kitchen enjoying the aromas of his mother's and grandmother's cooking. After pursuing a medical degree he still felt a longing throughout the years to share those flavors with others. It first started in 2007 when he decided to enter Green Bank Mill's first annual bread baking contest, and to his pleasure was awarded “First Place”. Since then, “The Spicy Chef”, has provided unique, delicious, authentic artisan breads, Mediterranean and Middle Eastern Foods. He is currently offering his products through Newark Natural Foods in Newark, Delaware and by special order online. Due to numerous requests he will soon be adding cooking classes to his repertoire. And looks forward to being surrounded by others who share his passion for creative cooking. Chef Dominicke Hayman A Delaware native, Dominicke had a desire to set out and see any and everything. That desire was enhanced upon deciding to pursue culinary arts after high school. After four years at Johnson & Wales he graduated with a BS in Culinary Nutrition. Not two weeks from graduation, he headed to Florence, Italy to immerse himself in the lifestyle and cuisine of Italy. He returned and immediately put his time to use working at one of Rhode Island’s best Italian eateries. His experience also includes time at Wilmington’s own, famed Green Room of Hotel DuPont. Currently Dominicke is enrolled in the MS Human Nutrition program at University of Delaware in an effort to realize his goal of bridging the gap between healthy food and fine cuisine; making sure the food you eat to live, is the food you LIVE TO EAT! |
