Larson treated Joe as a son, instilling his own passion and drives, helping him pick a culinary school. "Together we catered some of the finest weddings held in the state of Kentucky and the horse sales at Keeneland race track." Joe says of Larson, "He taught me that food is an art and I had the chance to be a great artist if I stayed the course. Joe has combined his professional culinary background with a strong flair for public relations and highly developed communication skills. He served as Corporate Chef and Key Account Manager. "I use people's eyes and palate as my canvas," Joe says of his special way with food. "A friend once said after tasting something that I had prepared, " 'There is a party going on in my mouth!' I could not have been happier."
