ROBERT KERR

~ Aspiring Chef ~

HELLO AND WELCOME

My passion for cooking started at a very young age in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Although it started as simple as mac & cheese, I have prepared more than 500 various dishes across many regional cuisines.
My journey has taken me from one of myfirst jobs at Athens Greek Restaurant to my venture business Corby Hall that catered to special events with 20 years of experience.
I am a big fan of exploring the limitations of the palette and often experiment with new recipes.

In 2006, I moved to China and delved into learning various Asian dishes. My personal favourite being, Spicy Bullfrog and Prawns Stir-fry.
Returning to Canada in 2019, I opened Corby Hall with a partner in 2023. My strongest areas of cuisine are Canadian, American, Italian, Asian (Chinese/Thai/Viet) and various seafood dishes.
My culinary goal is to continue my journey and study to become a certified chef. The dream is to someday build a three-star Michelin restaurant with exquisite signature dishes.

Started my first kitchen job at Athens Greek Restaurant as a dishwasher.

2019

Returned to Canada from almost 15 years in China where I studied Asian cuisine.

Began pursuing culinary arts studying to be a certified chef.
