Meet the Business Owner: James J.
A life in the food service business has brought talent developed in small towns and ski resorts to the Hotels and Country Clubs of the Palm Beach Socialite crowd and finally to the mountains of Wyoming. I started in the restaurant business at 11 years old growing up in a small ski resort community. I have worked every position in the industry throughout my career from dish washing front of the house and back of the house all the way to the accounting and ownership. I love the mountains, food and people. Our location although challenging at times being 20 miles from the nearest town offers all of the above and more. In this business you have to love what you do or you would not be doing it.
