Fine Dining in Fort Lauderdale

She trained at the culinary school at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. She also holds a Bachelor of Science in Food Science and Nutrition from Florida State University. In 2005, she joined 3030 Ocean Restaurant as a cook, working under respected chefs Dean Max and Paula DaSilva.

After developing her skills, Chef Grenier moved to Southern California. She spent time hiking, exploring farmers' markets, and experimenting with organic produce and bold new flavor pairings. She even cooked at Gordon Ramsay's Michelin-starred restaurant at the London Hotel in Los Angeles.

California deepened her passion for food and brought her back to South Florida in 2010. She rejoined her mentor, DaSilva, at 1500 Degrees Restaurant. Esquire Magazine promptly named it one of the best new restaurants in the country.

During that time, she also competed on and won an episode of Food Network's Chopped. Her reputation for bold, thoughtful cooking grew fast. Her talent earned her recognition well beyond South Florida.

A move to Brooklyn, New York, followed. She helped open the kitchen of Pasta Louise in Park Slope, which quickly became a cherished neighborhood gem. But the allure of South Florida sunshine and home kept calling.

In 2023, she returned to lead our kitchen as Executive Chef of Burlock Coast Seafare & Spirits. She reunited with her mentor, DaSilva, to bring modern coastal cuisine to life. Her bold, local flair defines our fine dining restaurants in Fort Lauderdale today.
