Living in Germany and Israel definitely influenced Dave Rawson’s culinary tastes. He started his baking career with 10 years at Great Harvest Bread Company, and Dave then attended culinary school at Sinclair Community College. Dave’s first cooking position was with The Winds Café in Yellow Springs, where he met his mentor Chef Elizabeth Wiley from Meadowlark and was offered a position as her Sous Chef. Dave says, “It’s a great feeling when someone tells you that you have prepared the best meal they’ve ever had, and that is what keeps me excited.”
