By: The Short Story Brasserie, Granville OH “We are excited to have Robert on our team so we can bring exciting, creative and innovative menus to our customers,” says James Housteau, owner of The Short Story http://www.TheShortStoryRestaurant.com. Housteau adds, “Robert will write the next chapter at The Short Story, and we’re sure it’ll be one to excite the palettes of our guests.” Robert graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York. Upon Graduation he went to work at Peter Pratt’s Inn in Yorktown, New York. Robert started as the Executive Pastry chef, baking and designing wedding cakes. He continued on to master French cuisine at The Castle at Tarrytown, a Relais Chateaux property, and the world famous Russian Tea Room in New York. These experiences allowed him time to develop his classic French techniques, an important component of the menu at The Short Story. Robert is no stranger to pairing food with wine. As the Chef De Cuisine at the La Valencia hotel in La Jolla, he oversaw the Sky Room that was voted the most romantic restaurant in San Diego. The La Valencia features a wine list with over 1,000 labels that is consistently awarded "Best of Award of Excellence" by the Wine Spectator. While at the La Valencia Robert had one of his specialty cakes featured in Parents magazine. Robert continued to explore his passion for California Cuisine when he took a position as Executive Sous Chef at Le Merigot Hotel and Spa in Santa Monica, California. His passion was recognized when he was picked as a finalist in the Best Upcoming Chef competition in Los Angeles. Robert then made Ohio his home and took positions as the Sous Chef at Lindey’s, a perennial “Top 10” restaurant in Columbus, and as the Executive Chef at the East Golf Club in New Albany. “We’ve been recognized as a top Restaurant in Columbus, Ohio and are currently the #1 Restaurant ‘Fit for Foodies’ as voted by our diners in OpenTable’s Diners’ Choice awards,” says Housteau. “Robert will continue our tradition of exceptional cuisine paired with excellent wine and service.
