Chef Eric Adema
Chef At Home In Greenville
Get to know me better
I love cooking unique dishes with fresh ingredients either from local farms or wild foraged when available.
Chef Eric Adema started cooking professionally at The Boulders Inn, an elegant country Inn owned by his family in upstate CT. Here he received immediate acclaim from numerous publications such as The New York Times, Boston Magazine, Mercedes Momentum and the Hartford Courant. He then furthered his career in the San Francisco Bay area working as a restaurant consultant and cooking instructor. Eric moved to Pickens in the fall of 2021 and is now happy to call South Carolina his home while learning the art of southern cooking.
He spends a lot of time hiking & foraging for ingredients in the wild. He has a foraging license and whenever possible incorporates wild mushrooms & edible plants in his cuisine.
More about me
For me, cooking is...
a great way to connect with people on a deep personnel level. Certain dishes can transport us to a loving memory or find a new love of food.
I learned to cook at...
with my mom & later at the country Inn in New England where I grew up. At 23 I became head chef, often preparing new versions of my mom's recipes.
A cooking secret...
using the best, freshest, locally sourced ingredients and then keeping it simple. Let the natural flavors do the talking.
