Meet the Chef – A Taste of Italy with Chef Drew
Chef Drew Nehrenz attended Western Culinary Institute and completed an internship in Las Vegas at Wolfgang Puck’s Spago. After many years working with extremely talented chefs in Portland he went on a foodie tour through Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia to learn about their complex cuisine. After a career in restaurants, he moved back to Cedar City to be closer to his family and decided to change up his career pace and start the Culinary Arts program at Southwest Technical College.
