Chef Dallas Holt

Meet Chef Dallas

Born and raised in Southern California, Chef Dallas has had an eclectic life to put it lightly. From sailing the South Pacific in his sailboat, developing real estate, to growing grapes, making wine and creating extraordinary meals from his famous little café.

For the past twenty years he has been intimately involved in the wine and food genre as executive chef and owner of the Tenth Street Basque Café. For years his guests have clamored for his tightly guarded recipes which he has finally agreed to share. His cookbook, Never Cook Bacon Naked, is well loved in many households around the country.

Chef Dallas currently lives on his ranch with his family on the Central Coast of California.
