Hi, I’m Max.
Wood-fired chef and adventure seeker.
Being a chef who works with fire is not just a job; it is a journey of craftsmanship and artistry, where I am constantly inspired by the transformative power of flames.
I spend my days as the grill chef for Bread and Friends, running their wood-fired grill for brunch in Portland, ME - and in my free time, I enjoy providing beautiful private dining experiences and experiencing what the world has to offer.
I’ve always enjoyed the little things; simplicity, and the effortless beauty provided by nature - or a quiet moment by a campfire. It inspires the creation of simple, flavorful dishes that capture the essence of the ingredients, without over-complication.
Let’s make something together.
