Chef Keegan Smyth
Private Chef In Kawartha LakesGet to know me better
A perfectionist in the culinary arts but never satisfied. Always learning, and always growing.
Growing up on a dairy farm, it felt as if I was destined to be in/around hospitality with all the ties to the industry I would find myself coming across, in my personal and professional life.
A former butcher at the local Bobcaygeon Valu-Mart in high school. Moving on to study Nutrition & Culinary Management from the esteemed George Brown Chef School.
Working up from a Cook & Chef du Tournant position with Oliver & Bonacini, to becoming the former Jr. Sous Chef of the sophisticated Auberge du Pommier.
Recently leading the team at Friday Harbour’s, The Lake Club restaurant where we continually pushed the culinary boundary in the Simcoe region.
