This curiosity makes him particularly adept at experimenting with new ingredients, flavours and recipes. in 1994, after working the Vinoy and the Columbia Restaurant, Chris joined Peter and Shawn at Seabar. When the time came to open the Red Mesa Mexican Restaurant, all three looked to their shared Latin background for inspiration. Red Mesa was born.
