Growing up in central Pennsylvania, chef Gregory Griffie was raised on fresh, locally grown foods from his family's own land and nearby farms, and through this early indoctrination, he learned the rewards of cooking from scratch with top quality ingredients. Those sensibilities still guide chef Griffie today as he oversees the culinary offerings at both 606 Congress restaurant and the Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel.
A graduate of Baltimore International College, chef Griffie has worked in kitchens ranging from Boston to Baton Rouge, honing classic French technique and forging relationships with leading purveyors and farmers. One of his greatest culinary influences is Cajun and Creole cooking legend John Folse, for whom Griffie worked as a sous chef at White Oak Plantation in Baton Rouge. Following his time with Folse, Griffie took on the role of Sous Chef at the Renaissance St. Louis, where he learned the art of BBQ.
Returning to the east coast in 2000, Griffie became chef of Windows restaurant at the Renaissance Baltimore Haborplace Hotel and later executive chef at Tbones Steakhouse at the Bridgewater Marriott in New Jersey. At Tbones, he distinguished himself as a hotel restaurant pioneer as it related to sourcing ingredients from the local farmers in the area. His visionary work garnered the ACE Award, recognizing culinary excellence across Marriott International.
In 2007, Griffie became the opening Executive Chef at the Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel in South Boston, where he established the eco-friendly property's composting program. In 2009, Griffie became the chef of the adjacent 606 Congress, working in tandem with acclaimed chef and restaurateur Michael Schlow to oversee the restaurant's modern American cuisine.
When he is not in the kitchen, Griffie can be found hard at work (or play) in his home garden with his two daughters.
