Sous Chef Mary of Satori Grill
Mary Bahus-Meyer has experienced cuisines from around the world on her travels as an "Army brat" and her extraordinary business experiences. Travels through Thailand, Germany, Italy, France, Japan, Hong Kong, Bali and many regions of the United States exposed her to many international cuisines. Her favorites are Thai and Japanese food.
Mary has a well-developed palette for food and assists Chef Channing with food preparation, developing sauces, and creating new dishes. Her Asian aesthetic (born in Yokohama, she is half-Japanese) comes through in her stylish presentation of dishes and table.
She has been instrumental in the development of the "theme dinners" from developing the menus to creating the ambiance. Mary loves the cross-cultural influences expressed through food and how sharing a meal brings people together.
