No. Grill is operated by two sisters, the oldest of four and the youngest. the oldest is the “Sweet” pastry chef, while the youngest is the “Savory” chef (those that know her might say ‘spicy’ is a good fit as well). Even with a perfect harmony of yin and yang, there is a place for a a “Zesty” influence. This role is filled by the chefs husband who has a number of years of experience in the restaurant business, and helps out both in house and with catering. In some cultures the number 3 is a lucky number, and that certainly seems to be the case with us! Enjoy our unique blend of sweet and savory all year at No. 3 Grill!
