Healdsburg SHED Appoints Celebrated Chef Perry Hoffman as Culinary Director
Chef Hoffman's extensive culinary and farming acumen elevate SHED's offerings
It is with great pleasure that co-owners Cindy Daniel and Doug Lipton announce the appointment of award-winning chef Perry Hoffman as the new Culinary Director of their two-year-old SHED.
Hoffman joins Healdsburg SHED, a modern grange hall, cafe, fermentation bar, and marketplace after a celebrated run as the Executive Chef at étoile at Domaine Chandon, which closed earlier this year.
Given the Napa Valley native's grandparents Sally and Don Schmitt were the original owners of The French Laundry in Yountville and founders of The Apple Farm in Philo, Mendocino County, it seems Hoffman was destined for a career in the culinary arts. Not surprisingly his pedigree led him into fine dining where he honed his craft at such notable institutions as Auberge du Soleil and
étoile
at Domaine Chandon where the young chef rose quickly through the ranks, and even planted a culinary garden that greatly fostered and expanded his farming and ingredient knowledge.
"There are so many reasons we are thrilled that Hoffman is joining SHED,"
shares Daniel, "he has the heart of a gardener and, like us, he believes that cultivating good food comes from good farming."
While most of Hoffman's 16 years of professional cooking include white-tablecloth dining,
he will break that mold at SHED and embrace their more casual, but refined sensibility. Hoffman will oversee the entire culinary program that includes three eating periods (morning, afternoon and evening), private dining and events. The 31-year-old celebrated chef will focus on enhancing SHED's offerings (including plenty of shareable options) and he will continue to cultivate a nourishing and convivial experience, with a sense of discovery and delight at the table.
"Cindy and Doug have created something alive and beautiful at SHED. I am eager to be a part of the SHED community -
to get to know the farmers-and to learn and collaborate."
Hoffman adds, "I'm especially looking forward to exploring seasonality and terroir in Sonoma County, and being part of creating and completing the cycle from seed to plate. "
With a focus on responsible farming, ingredient-driven cooking, and flavorful food,
Daniel and Lipton are excited to see where Hoffman with his "immense culinary talents and creativity"
will take their cuisine. Having founded Carneros Micros, a micro-green/edible flower farm with Jerome Cunnie, Hoffman will have the opportunity to get his hands dirty again (literally) as he collaborates with grower Lipton who owns HomeFarm five miles away.
"I am thrilled to think that I am now a farmer for one of our region's most talented and passionate young chefs," says Lipton who looks forward to growing new and interesting flavors that Hoffman will be bringing to the plate-straight from HomeFarm.
