Meet Zach!

Zach Labelle, chef at Cafe at the GalleryOn June 16, Zach Labelle will officially open the Cafe at the Gallery as its chef supreme.  Zach Labelle was born in Hinesburg and went to CVU high school. He started finding his way around a kitchen at 16 and worked as a dishwasher at Mexicali and Wake Robin prior to graduation. He was the Garde Manger or “keeper of the pantry” at Bistro Sauce in Shelburne where he worked under the tutelage of Bill Iliff, currently one of the chefs at the Inn at Shelburne Farms. After taking a break from cooking and traveling to California and Las Vegas Zack found employment at various food related venues in and around Burlington. He ended up at Healthy Living in Burlington where he has worked for the last 4 years. His assignments included head brunch cook and kitchen supervisor. His recent move to South Hero from Burlington was already in the works before he heard about our opening at the gallery. Some things are just meant to be…

New Beginnings…again!

Each year, we learn something new.  And each year we are given a challenge that, for a bit of time, seems insurmountable.  And, if patterns can be true, we tend to figure out the challenge and end up with something even better than our original plan.

Stay tuned for one of these “better yet” solutions!  Our fingers are crossed.  The construction is almost complete.  Our hearts and souls are committed to solving this one.  Watch for signs of our newest addition:

Cafe at the Gallery

Simple cooking using local foods and spirits!

Our newest addition, 3 season dining room

In the mean time, check out our great slate of classes!  Our artists are the best at what they do and we are fortunate to have them share their talents here at Grand Isle Art Works!  You can register right on the website – or give a call over to the gallery and we will reserve your spot.

New Beginnings…

We are readying ourselves for some new beginnings at Grand Isle Art Works.  First we have finally begun construction on our new 3-season room on the deck!  We even were able to get it started before the real warm weather arrives – sort of the idea – to extend the dining season for the gallery cafe!

3-season room for Grand Isle art Works cafe!Glen Koski is a magician.  He can take my ideas and make them work.  Yee ha!  The walls will be half solid – half moveable.  They will pull back like a barn door on tracks.  This way we can keep the room open in warm weather – but pull the doors shut when we need it more snugly!

Second…our cafe will be reopening soon, under new management.  We apologize for this inconvenience – but had very short notice to get this new planning in place.  We are on it now and are thinking all positive thoughts to get the cafe back on track.  Watch for signs of our progress!

Jim makes a mean doughnut puff!  🙂
