The Well-Bred Supper Club is pleased to introduce the creators of the Well-Bred Supper Club, Chefs Laura Bogard Taylor and Martha Beakes. Laura is a stellar graduate of the New England Culinary Institute in Vermont. Laura came to us after stints at the Grove Park Inn’s Horizons and Gabrielle’s at the former Richmond Hill Inn. She’s orchestrated Well-Bred’s cuisine for seven years.
Martha Beakes graduated from the Florida Culinary Institute and after stints in Palm Beach, New Orleans and San Francisco came to the mountains. She was Martha of Martha’s at Magnolia Mountain Inn in Hot Springs before Well-Bred captured her and her fabulous talents!
