About Chef
Having worked in top restaurants across the United States’ diverse culinary landscape, Jordan Keao brings with him close to two decades of culinary experience. Born and raised in Hawaii, where cooking, fishing, hunting and farming are a part of everyday life, his passion for wood-fire cooking was sparked by his childhood years in the kitchen, where he built fires and helped his mother prepare dishes for dinner. A former restauranteur himself, Jordan previously created Aina in San Francisco as a modern Hawaiian pop-up, and contributed to its evolution into an award-winning full service establishment that has been featured in international media such as the New York Times and Michelin’s Bib Gourmand guide. In his role as Chef de Cuisine at Butcher’s Block, Jordan draws on his Hawaiian heritage and deep passion for cooking with wood to present an avant-garde wood-fire dining experience, expressing the elemental affinity and finesse of cooking with wood-fire.
