The next generation of culinary artisans are changing up the industry. These artisans have a whole new approach to reaching and satisfying the next generation consumer. In this podcast we will explore chefs and artisans from around the world diving into their story and passion.

In this episode of Chef AF, I chat with Executive Chef John Clements from Mission Point Resort, Mackinac Island about how he brings a fresh perspective to the resort’s farm-to-ferry program and offers guests unique culinary adventures and seasonal flavors.

Clements brings his culinary and hospitality expertise to his role as executive chef of Mission Point’s farm-to-ferry restaurants, including Round Island Kitchen, Chianti, Bistro on the Greens, and Boxwood Coffeeshop & Cafe. Clements is training to earn the prestigious recognition of Certified Master Chef through the American Culinary Federation exam, distinguishing those who have excelled in both their culinary skills and knowledge of the industry.

I ask Clements about the resort and he says, “Mission Point Resort is quite unique being on Mackinac Island, up in northern Michigan. On the island, the biggest thing is there are no cars that are allowed on the island. So the products that I get in for the resort are brought over by ferry and then they're loaded on a horse cart and then brought up to the resort by a horse, you know, very, very old school, 1800s type of situation.” The resort is seasonal and closes at the end of October through the end of April.

We talk about the importance of each restaurant having its own culinary point of view and Clements says, “I think that's really important in the resort because you think about capture rate. You have guests that come up on a Friday, Saturday or on a Sunday. I'd like to see them at least three or four of the meals. So that's why each one of the outlets has their own identity.”

To hear Clements top three tips for developing a menu, get the story behind his recipe for Sautéed Michigan Walleye and why it is important to source ingredients locally, check out this episode of Chef AF “It’s All Food.” You can listen to this episode and more on Spotify!
