Chef Jef Wight
Now leads the FCC new culinary program as Executive Chef, beginning mid-March. He is a graduate of Le Cordon Bleu Culinary Academy; he has worked in a wide array of cuisines and restaurants, both large and intimate. For many years he worked in Atlanta with Richard Blais, a former Top Chef winner, and focused on molecular gastronomy to reimagine and refine traditional southern dishes.

His style is best described as influenced by traditional French and Southern cuisines with a love for reimagining classic dishes and always focusing on refined techniques. Jef was Executive Chef, leading the kitchen at Sur Lie, in Portland, and most recently at Crown Jewel on Great Diamond Island, as well as cooking and hosting virtual wine dinners with Sommelier Erica Archer of Wine Wise and Falmouth Country Club.
