Meet: Chef Simroy Campbell story + photo by Sue Pais
Superbly trained, and as appreciative as he is driven, this Jamaican-born executive chef adds character, artistry, and a piece of his soul with each dish he prepares. It’s not just a job for Chef Campbell; it’s a purpose. It’s artistry in action, and when he sees delight from diners, it’s the greatest joy this Jamaican gem can imagine. Aside from his wife and children, that is. With a journey that began as a desire to lighten his mother’s burden, Chef Campbell has blossomed his good intention into a tremendous career—one that affords his own family an upbringing far different than his own. Fabulous food aside, it’s no wonder Chef Campbell was nominated by our readership… LAKElife Magazine? Meet the one and only, and ever-inspiring, Executive Chef Simroy Campbell.
