Chef Brandon Evans

WARSAW — From 1-3 p.m. Friday, April 29, the public is invited to Taste and Tour to enjoy some samples homemade by Chef Brandon Evans, held in the courtyard of Lake City Place, Warsaw’s 2016 Best of Assisted Living Award Winner named from Senior Advisor.com.

The annual SeniorAdvisor.com Best of Awards celebrates the best of the best in senior living and home care across the United States and Canada. Of the nearly 100,000 providers currently listed on SeniorAdvisor.com, just over 1,000 were recognized with this award.

A Warsaw native, Chef Brandon headlines the event, where he will fuse his trademark flavors in his shrimp samples, crab cakes and  marinated fruit; including a variety of appetizers made from healthy recipes. This will be Chef Brandon’s third event.

Chef Brandon came from the Redwood Grill prior to joining the team at Lake City Place. When asked why he decided to pursue a living as a chef, he replied, “It’s so natural for me to pursue cooking as a profession. Both my mom and my grandmother are both great cooks and have inspired me all my life.”

Chef Brandon has also spent a few years experimenting with different flavors and textures while employed at Zimmer here in Warsaw, where he helped with meal preparation. His experience coordinating food serving in both the kitchen and dining room has influenced the way he thinks and feels about food. Prior to Zimmer, he attended Vincent College.

Those interested in attending can RSVP at (574) 267-3873 or call for more information.
