ABOUT DAVID MURPHY:

Chef David Patrick Murphy was born and raised in Co. Mayo, Ireland. He writes, "I grew up in a home where meals were home cooked and I have amazing food sensory memories from my mothers and grandmothers kitchens. Food was always hearty and homely. I always enjoyed playing around in the kitchen but went in other directions career wise for many years. I shared my passion for all things sweet by bringing treats to my work colleagues mostly so that I wouldn't just eat them all myself - did I mention I have a sweet tooth?!

I finally took the leap into the professional culinary world in 2014 where I attended the Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology Culinary Arts program and I found that my home hobby was actually what I was meant to do and I fell in love with it. The year prior to going back to school I happened to meet my now wife, Nora in Dublin, Ireland. This chance meeting lead to my introduction to Des Moines and ultimately ended up with my working in Baru 66, Windsor Heights and Harbinger on Ingersoll Avenue, Des Moines. I also spent a little time in The Grateful Chef kitchen recently where Brandy's infectious joy of food and sharing it with those around her reignited the spark in me to go it on my own as a Pastry Chef. So here I am, taking another step towards this goal with a little bit of me on a plate - enjoy!

I believe that food comes from the heart and the love that is put into the preparation of food can be tasted in the end! I love food, I love sharing my food with others, I love how the simplicity of sharing a meal with loved ones or strangers can bring a table together but mostly I love how food can ignite conversation or at times instill a silence that only comes from the pleasure of that first bite or taste of something truly delicious!"
