Summary

Pastry Chef at The Greenhouse Tavern & Noodlecat, Matt Danko began his cooking career at age 13 at a pizza shop in his hometown of Northfield, Ohio. Initially trained in fine art and education, Danko graduated from The Kent State University in 2006. Creativity, passion, and self-directed culinary training quickly led him back into the kitchen. Danko began working as a line cook with Chef Jonathon Sawyer in 2009; he was young, eager, and ready to learn. Sawyer immediately recognized his talent and abilities and after two years of dedicated hard work, Danko began creating the dessert menus at The Greenhouse Tavern & Noodlecat. Finding inspiration in art, music, food and fashion, Danko creates desserts that are traditional & trendy, fun & formal, and absolutely delicious.
