CHEF MARK GARCIA
Born and raised in the Bronx, Mark worked at fast-casual restaurants throughout high school before attending SUNY Delhi for culinary arts. During his time there, he gravitated towards cooking competitions, even the winning Ment'or BKB Young Chef Competition, which led him to work at James Beard award-winning Spoon & Stable in Minneapolis. Mark has also worked at renowned eateries in New York, including Eleven Madison Park (3 Michelin Stars), Bouchon Bakery, and Milu. In 2021, he was tapped by EMP to help launch their plant-based pantry program before moving over to the highly acclaimed Five Acres, where he worked as a sous chef. Mark is currently the head chef of West Village hotspot and cafe Hungry Llama.
