Born and raised in the Bronx, New York, Chef Brion Sawyer’s culinary passion began early, inspired by his grandmother, mother, and supportive ex-girlfriends. His first industry job was at White Castle, but he’s no stranger to hard work, having tackled roles in construction, maintenance, and sanitation before fully embracing cooking. Chef Adam, a key mentor, showed him that kindness in the kitchen is as vital as skill, a value Brion carries into every meal he creates.
Known for his inventive oxtail dishes, including oxtail pot pie and oxtail Philly cheesesteak, Chef Brion’s personal favorites include simple spaghetti and the richly seasoned curry goat with oxtail gravy from Royal Caribbean Bakery. When he’s not cooking, he loves music, sports, dancing, working out, and being near the ocean. For Chef Brion, cooking isn’t just a career; it’s a lifelong passion and a way to spread joy through food.
