About Executive Chef Nick Baker
Executive Chef Nick Baker joined Bridlewood Golf Club in April 2000. He has
a fairly extensive background, with a great knowledge of food and flavor
combinations. His apprenticeship started in 1990 with a restaurant in
Denver, CO. The owner was the president of the Colorado Restaurant
Association, and deeply believed in The Culinary Institute of America
(C.I.A.) graduates. Three of the chefs Nick had worked with were C.I.A.
graduates. After his apprenticeship, he was offered a $10,000 scholarship
to the C.I.A. of which he accepted. Nick's externship took him all over the
state of New York, from movie sets in Manhattan, birthday parties for the
Rockefellers, to the Thai Chi getaways in the Catskills.
After graduation,
Nick was offered and accepted an executive chef position with an upscale
restaurant in Denver. From there, he relocated to the Rio Grande Valley
where he was executive chef of the largest hotel and catering operation in
the area. Banquets ranged in guests counts up to 1,200 people per day.
While in The Valley, he was contracted out by the president of Mitsubishi
North America, where he cooked for clients from all over the world. Nick is
blessed with a great family, wife Tessa and two children, Dylan and Miles.
