Chris has been chef in kitchens all over the world, from his native Scotland to Dublin, the U.S. Virgin Islands and high end resorts here in the U.S.

Chris will offer a new approach and he continues to make Cabaret dining an integral part of the experience - menus will be inspired by the show, and he'll strive to offer something on the menu everyone, regardless of dietary restrictions.

Coming to the Cabaret from New Sammy's Cowboy Bistro, Harlan brings a wealth of fine dining and management experience to the Cab.  He looks to bring a fresh focus on service and creating a dining experience for our guests as the shows.
