We are extremely pleased to announce that we have a new Pastry Chef here at Butcher and The Boar! Her name is Rachel and long story short, she’s as awesome as she is talented. We couldn’t be happier to have her on our team.
North Dakota native Rachel Slivicki migrated to Chicago to attend the Le Cordon Bleu school of Culinary Arts in 2005. Working her way through Chicago’s vibrant restaurant scene, she landed a position at Mindy’s HotChocolate, Mindy Segal’s perennial landmark. Under the guidance of the James Beard Award winning pastry chef, Rachel honed her skills to a razor’s edge. She was nominated Time Out Magazine’s “20 Chefs to Watch,” as well as Zagat’s 30 Under 30 in 2012. Feeling a need to be closer to family, Rachel moved to Minneapolis where she is currently heading the pastry department at award winning Butcher and the Boar, 2012 Star Tribune Restaurant of the Year. Rachel draws inspiration from many things, but it’s her love of hiking outdoors with her dog as well as music and dancing that keeps the creative energy flowing. She is guided by the changing seasons and her approach is self-described as “classic American comfort” Yet in the skilled hands of this young star, classic American becomes anything but homespun.
