The following personal history demonstrates how naturally he found a calling in the field of culinary arts after honorary discharge from military service in 1990. Russell's specialty is fresh fish and seafood preparation, the essence of the Mediterranean diet. At age six while growing up on the banks of Oregon's McKenzie River, Russell rose daily at 5:30 am and fished until five trout were secured. He proceeded to the garden for fresh peas, corn and green beans, then headed straight to the kitchen to clean & fillet his bounty and prepare omelets before waking the family for breakfast. Such is country life!
