WHO AM I?

Chef James T. Ehler, (webmaster, chef, writer, editor & publisher). Originally from the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn, New York, I have also lived and worked in Montana, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Colorado, Arkansas, North Carolina, Key West, Florida and since September, 2005 I have been living in Winona, Minnesota.

I have been cooking for over 35 years, spending a little more than 5 years apprenticing with several Colorado chefs, and was a working Executive Chef for 20 years.

I have been a member of the Chefs de Cuisine of the Pikes Peak Region (American Culinary Federation) and the Colorado Chefs de Cuisine (ACF). I have served as president of the Arkansas State Professional Culinary Association (ACF), and was a founding member and president of the Conch Republic (Florida Keys) Chapter of the ACF.

I am a former Executive Chef of the Cripple Creek Country Club, and Brittany Hill Restaurant in Colorado; the Hilton Hotel in Fayetteville, Arkansas; the New Bern Golf and Country Club, North Carolina; Martha's Steak & Seafood, and the Reach Hotel (both in Key West).

Since I began to seriously devote more time to writing, I worked as a cook (and webmaster) for Blue Heaven Restaurant in Key West, Florida 5 years, until 2001. This enabled me to concentrate on the Culinary Encyclopedia I have been working on for many years. This website, contains some of that material. Beginning in April 2003 I now work full time on this and several other websites in the Food Reference family of websites.
www.FoodReference.com
www.CulinaryPosters.com
www.SeafoodFish.com 

I also contribute articles, culinary crosswords and other material to other food websites, as well as many print publications. I perform occasional research for food writers and chefs with various magazines, newspapers and television programs.
