Chef Spotlight
Tom Martin, Lead Baker
While Lexington sleeps, Tom Martin is in the Alfalfa kitchen making his renowned bread and desserts.
“I can never match memories of my Grandmother's baking. She used tons of homemade butter, a rolling pin made for her by my Dad in high school shop, on a wood shelf that slid out of her kitchen cabinet and had all rounded corners from 60 years of pies, cookies, and cinnamon buns. She made cherry and blueberry pie, the best cinnamon buns ever (I'm convinced it was the hand churned butter), and big peanut butter cookies,” says Tom. She never directly taught him to bake but he must have picked something up by osmosis. “She did teach me that food is love.”
