Meet The Chef
Shaun Garcia
Originally from Spartanburg, Shaun's interest in food began early. He spent time as a child in traditional southern "meat and three" restaurants owned by his grandmother. A self-taught culinarian, Shaun has built on his early passion with ten years of professional experience at restaurants in North and South Carolina. He joined Table 301 in August 2003 as a line cook, worked his way up and was promoted to Chef de Cuisine in January 2007. One of his primary goals in dish development is the use of seasonal ingredients and local products whenever possible, both because supporting local growers is important to community and because use of the freshest ingredients always translates to greater flavor for the customer. One of his favorite responsibilities is the development of the nightly features offered to compliment the Soby's dinner menu- a task that allows him to really exercise his culinary creativity.
