Over the past couple of decades Dak has owned and operated a few acclaimed eateries in Palm Beach County and has acquired a cult following. He currently owns Jewell Bistro located in a neighborhood known for its culinary domination and ladies of the evening. The bistro serves  an ever changing menu focusing on seriously local seafood & produce and that infamous burger.  He has also been popping up in the bistro with his Jewell Chinezze (pay attention, more to come)

Prior to the bistro Dak created the ridiculously small Pizzeria Oceano in Lantana. It was consistently voted best Pizza in South Florida year after year and drew crowds from all over the U.S., some actually got to eat there.

His first venture, the kitschy Miss Marsha's Pizzeria on Singer Island was named for the mom in this mom & pop team, Miss Marsha, Dak's wife. Miss Marsha handles the sweets. They met at an interview for Kyoto Sushi in Delray Beach where Dak was Direktor of Operations. 

He went to school, drank, ate & worked in restaurants in Philly before moving to South Florida.

Dak grew up in Hershey and doesn't enjoy chocolate.
