The last cooking demonstration on Sunday afternoon at the Taste of Travel Theater will be Chef Garth demonstrating his own recipe for Texas Seafood Tostados.

Born in Lubbock and raised in Houston, Chef Garth has a passion for all things Texas and that certainly includes stellar sources for seasonal ingredients. His parents’ home cooking got him started in the kitchen, and he really fell in love with food as a member of the U.S. National Cycling Team traveling and tasting his way through 30 different countries.

After graduating culinary school, he went on to cook at several acclaimed Houston restaurants, cheffed it up in catering, and also cooked full time for a star NBA family.  Currently he is Executive Chef at Sub-Zero Wolf running two state-of-the-art culinary centers in Dallas and Houston
