Growing heirloom vegetables at Crown Hill Farm is about honoring roots and celebrating a diversity of flavors, colors and textures. Two things Chef Eury Santana weaves together in his food. Inspired by a combination of his Brooklyn, NY upbringing and Dominican roots, Chef Eury brings loads of flavor, passion and creativity from outside the box to his meals.

Then sit down to a beautiful meal prepared by Chef Eury Santana, who loves to bring fun and pure joy to every dish he creates! (detailed menu available closer to the event)In order to work with what is at its best, the full menu will not be finalized until soon before the dinner.)

Our young people are the future! We as chefs and farmers have to lead by example and keep paying it forward! I'm excited to announce that Chef Eury will be bringing some of his students from Niagara Falls Culinary Institute to help out. I think it's vital for them to get hands on experience and see something different especially when it comes to sustainability and locally farmed products.

This will be a fun and educational dinner to be sure!

Bring along your friends or family to sit together amongst the fullness of the apple orchard, gardens, surrounding hay field & vineyard with a view of Lake Erie on the horizon. Take in the beauty of the early evening light as Chef Eury Santana fills your soul with his multi-course Farm-to-Table meal and addition optional add-on wine pairings hosted by Six Friends Cabernet.

About Chef Eury Santana: Eury first got into cooking when he visited his family in the Dominican Republic when he was a kid. He was really infatuated by all the fruits and vegetables that were grown on his grandparent’s family farm. There he was, a kid from Brooklyn who pretty much lived in a food dessert, seeing for the first time, things like Mangoes, tamarind, star fruit, jackfruit, Yucca, and Plantains. In that moment he knew food would play an important part in his life.

It should have been obvious Eury would eventually be a chef. He was the kid that preferred to stay in and watch cooking shows than go play outside. One of his favorite memories is when he decided to attempt his first ever recipe from the food network website. It was a bread pudding made with challah bread. He recalls, “ I didn’t know what the heck challah bread was and I needed to find out! I also didn’t know you could soak bread in milk; eggs, sugar and spices then bake it. It was truly tasty and fascinating!” Eager to learn and expand his knowledge, Eury continued to watch those cooking shows, experiment in the kitchen, and eat his way through New York City’s diverse food culture where he grew up.

Like many, Eury has taken the unconventional path into the food service industry. Initially, Eury set out to become a doctor. It wasn’t well into long years of schooling when he decided medicine just wasn’t it. He’s always known food was his passion and becoming a chef is what he wanted to do, but needed some guidance, a little push. With the support from friends, family and his lovely wife Eury was set to accomplish a long dream of his. Armed with determination and passion, he went on and enrolled at the Niagara Falls Culinary Institute. After Chef Eury graduated with a degree in culinary arts, his life was about to change forever. He met his mentor, two times James Beard semifinalist, Chef Victor Parra Gonzalez of Las Puertas. Eury became the sous chef and took Buffalo by storm- creating beautiful dishes influenced by Mexican and Latin American cuisine. He credits Chef Victor for the guidance he provided that had everything to do with making him the Chef he is today.

Now, Eury Santana is continuing to carve his own path. His approach is simple: Whatever it takes. Make good food! That’s it! With lots of Sabor! (FLAVOR!) Currently, Eury is a Chef Instructor as NFCI and a private chef. When he’s not doing either.. Catch him at one of his pop-ups or hosting brunch at Alchemy Wine & Beer.

Lastly, Eury wants to leave you with a few words. He says; “It’s never to late to leave your mark! I want to prove that there is no conventional path. Life will take many turns to get you to where you’re meant to be. It ok that you don’t go to culinary school right out of high school. Hell you don’t even have to go to culinary school at all. You can be a ‘late bloomer’ in this industry and still make an impact! Follow your heart and get cooking!”
