At Niche we work to create a menu of humble ingredients and serve them in a way that shows their real potential.
To take the common and remind you how beautiful it can be. We look to the past to see what was here long before us and we look to the future to see what might be possible. As chefs we are never satisfied and always evolving. We are more in awe of a carrot or potato, grown by one of our trusted farmers, than we are by a white truffle flown in from Italy. To us, this is what defines cooking in Missouri.

Why do you love Missouri
There are so many hidden gems here. The Ozark Hills, the rivers, the woods, the farmlands, and the cities. I love Missouri for its awesome pace of life, great people, history, and lots of treasured open spaces.

I can’t say that I have a least favorite. There are things I have not worked with much, but nothing I would consider my least favorite.

Even after living here most of my life I am still amazed what I learn about it each passing year, and how I can translate our history into the food.
