Sean Finley, a long-time friend and renowned professional chef, graced us with his presence, bringing with him not only his passion for cooking but also a wealth of experience garnered from years of culinary exploration.Sean's journey into the world of culinary arts began with a profound love for food and a thirst for knowledge. His culinary path has taken him across continents, from the bustling kitchens of renowned restaurants to the serene beauty of remote lodges.

From the moment he stepped into our kitchen, Sean's passion for cooking was palpable, igniting a spark of excitement that would infuse every meal with an extra dash of flavor. One of the highlights of Sean's visit was his demonstration of grilling deer, a dish that perfectly captured the essence of Patagonian cuisine. With meticulous attention to detail, Sean guided our staff through the process, sharing his tips and techniques for achieving the perfect balance of smoky char and tender juiciness. As the aroma of grilled meat filled the air, anticipation grew, and when the first bite was taken, it was nothing short of sublime.
