It Takes a Chef
To Support a Chef
It wasn’t that long ago that James Woodard was a sought-after home chef, regularly hosting gatherings at his place. Well known for his Texas meets California-style barbecue, he began doing catering, pop-ups, and festivals, slowly getting his feet wet in the professional culinary world.
​
Seven years and a whole lot of trial and error later, Haus of Chefs is James’s fourth restaurant venture and a true passion project. He’s reaching back to give talented chefs a chance to gain restaurant industry experience while offering a springboard to grow their culinary brand.

The truth is that opening a restaurant incurs tens of thousands of dollars in startup costs. There are licenses and fees, equipment and labor costs, plus staffing and the day-to-day operations required to stay open. But what if you could bypass all of that and simply focus on the food while learning the restaurant ropes along the way?
Haus of Chefs is designed to give aspiring chef-owners the foundation to build success and notoriety by providing a dedicated day of the week to serve their cuisine in a stylish, twelve hundred square foot space, complete with a full commercial kitchen and sixteen tables of seating.
Sounds too good to be true? It’s not. Let us show you how it works.
