Chef Spotlight
Chef Marshall Ziehm, grew up on a farm in rural Virginia. Coming to
understand the beauty and importance of a sustainable lifestyle, at a
very early age, he has been pleasing the palates of the most discerning
foodies, for some 30 years. Beginning with the opening of his eponymous
restaurant in Park City, Utah, which received critical acclaim, for its
groundbreaking cuisine, from the Salt Lake Tribune, LA Magazine, and Salt Lake City Magazine, which
said, “Chef Ziehm has changed the palette of Utah”, and continuing, as he took on the highly contentious
food scene in Chicago, with the opening of his second restaurant, Ena. The 50-seat restaurant, garnered
“3 Stars”, from the Chicago Tribune, “Best New Restaurant”, from Chicago Magazine, “4 Stars”, from
The Big Review, and a “Top Chicago Restaurant” honor, from the Kaplan Radio Show.
Chef Ziehm continued his rise through the top chef ranks, as a corporate chef for Lettuce Entertain
You Enterprises, opening the award winning, Petetrinos Restaurant, and many more over the next
20 years. Chef Ziehm, has cooked in small cantinas in Mexico, and 3 Star Michelin restaurants in
Europe, and everything in between, with one goal in mind, that of mastering his trade. Those
lessons, learned on the farm, resonate today, in his cooking, and his dedication to a farm, water,
and forest, to table lifestyle.
