Chef Hunter Davis is a Florida Panhandle native, raised along the iconic stretch of Highway 30A—an 18-mile ribbon of sugar-white beaches and charming coastal communities. It was here, in the heart of this seaside haven, that Hunter first stepped into the kitchen and discovered his passion for the culinary arts.

​

        After years of working in restaurants, Hunter envisioned something more personal, more intimate—a dining experience that brought the elegance of the coast directly to the table. In 2012, he launched The Dish and The Spoon, a bespoke personal chef service serving both locals and vacationers seeking an elevated alternative to crowded restaurants. His refined approach to coastal cuisine, paired with the comfort of dining at home, quickly earned acclaim, and within just a few seasons, Hunter was booked nearly every night from spring through fall.

 

      While his journey has taken him beyond 30A—building new experiences, raising a family, and embracing adventure—Hunter’s philosophy remains the same: to craft unforgettable dining experiences rooted in connection, flavor, and the natural beauty of the coast.

   

      Today, The Dish and The Spoon continues to deliver tailored, luxury dining experiences that capture the essence of coastal living, one plate at a time.
