A Little Bit About B&D

Hey! Welcome to Braised and Deglazed!

I’m Devan, the chef, creator and author behind Braised and Deglazed.

I’m a sucker for over-priced coffee, strong IPAs, and I find coriander disgusting.

My (coriander-free) recipes are backed with a 3-year culinary diploma, a Safe Food Handler’s certification, and over 15 years of experience in Michelin-starred restaurants in France, Italy, Canada and now the Netherlands.

I moved to the Netherlands to live with my other half, Caroline after meeting her while working in Paris, France.

She’s the master food photographer, editor (and professional taste tester!) for B&D.

My Work Experience

I have 15 years of experience in professional kitchens around the world and have completed a 3-year culinary program with honours at George Brown College in Toronto, Canada. Through my training with George Brown College, I was granted the opportunity to work at Michelin-starred Osteria del Vicario in Italy. During this time in Italy, I also received further education at ALMA, the International School of Italian Cuisine.

After returning to Canada, I continued to work in numerous kitchens in Toronto and successfully held management positions in various restaurants. I later decided to pack up my bags and move to Europe to further my skills as a Chef and follow my dreams. This landed me a position with Gregory Marchand at Frenchie Wine Bar in Paris, France. I worked, cooked and lived in Paris for a year and a half before returning back to Canada.

Upon returning home I worked extensively with Matt Binkley from Culinary Search Group in the private chef industry in Toronto, Canada. Here I was trusted to work for numerous celebrities, athletes and world-class businessmen/women including Kevin O’Leary, Antonio Park, Matty Matheson, Gordon Ramsay and The Toronto Maple Leafs.

Occasionally I like to share quality kitchen tools and products I love in my recipes. It must be useful for my readers and high quality.
