CHEF DAVID

Chef David Wooding

David Wooding, Executive Chef at Maxwell's Steakhouse, loves to feed people. A daring chef, he thrives on choosing his vegetables “off the truck,” at the beck and call of whatever is available that day. This is where his creativity excels. Southern cooking infuses his food, but so does French, Italian and Nouveau American. A hybrid. What reflects his mood of the day. His luncheon fare repertoire has included a duck confit and arugula salad, prosciutto dusted scallops and confit of pork belly over salad of heirloom tomatoes and watercress. Chef David attended the Johnson County School where he studied culinary arts. He served with Chef Michael Turner of the Classic Cup and Linda Dewar off JJ's, both in Kansas City.
