Episode 19 - Charcuterie & Chocolate with Chef Chris Parnell

Chris Parnell is a personal chef and entrepreneur based in Golden, British Columbia. From a young age, Chris knew that his passion was cooking. He has over 12 years of professional cooking experience, which includes The Fat Duck in London (a three Michelin starred restaurant) as well as backcountry lodges across the Canadian Rockies. In addition to his personal chef work, Chris is the co-founder of Dogtooth Chocolate, which will be launching later this year. We hope you enjoy this  great conversation about Chris's story, passion and adaptation, the professional cooking world, entrepreneurship and the two-sided coin of social media.
