I don\u2019t mind making people think about a dish they\u2019re eating, but I also really enjoy creating an effortless experience where you could be a foodie and spend your entire meal analyzing every bite of every dish and feel fulfilled at the end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Suess\u2019s culinary journey has taken him through some of Asheville\u2019s most respected kitchens, including Sovereign Remedies, Chattooga Club and The Market Place, where he helped the restaurant earn recognition as a James Beard Outstanding Restaurant semifinalist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat drew me to The Silo Cookhouse was that it\u2019s just five minutes from our house,\u201d he says. \u201cAfter more than ten years of commuting and working mostly in downtown Asheville, it\u2019s so nice to be close to home and in such a more relaxed and calm environment. Also, the idea of helping to further cultivate this food program, as well as the farm in general during this large transition, seemed like a great new project to concentrate on.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_80338\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-80338\" class=\"wp-image-80338\" src=\"https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Horse-Shoe-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"377\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Horse-Shoe-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Horse-Shoe-1-239x300.jpg 239w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Horse-Shoe-1-815x1024.jpg 815w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Horse-Shoe-1-768x964.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Horse-Shoe-1-810x1017.jpg 810w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Horse-Shoe-1-1140x1432.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-80338\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photos courtesy of Horse Shoe Farm<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Suess looks forward to returning to a smaller-scale setting where he can be more creative and focus on producing high-quality, high-touch dishes. While working in larger, busier kitchens downtown, he says he often had to scale back his creativity to allow for greater volume. \u201cI am very much enjoying being back in a smaller volume setting where I can be more creative and produce more high-touch dishes in a smaller and more intimate environment,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>The natural surroundings of The Horse Shoe Farm also play a significant role in influencing Suess\u2019s work. \u201cThe physical environment being this gorgeous farm tucked in the mountains is definitely allowing for my head to clear and not feel contained within the concrete jungle all the time,\u201d he says. \u201cI am huge into the outdoors, and so being able to look out the window and see the mountains or take a short walk to the edge of the property and be standing on the bank of the French Broad River is quite a lovely perk. I think being surrounded by a more natural setting is only going to allow me to go about my new role here with more calmness and clarity, which will seep into everything, food included.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_80342\" style=\"width: 260px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-80342\" class=\"wp-image-80342\" src=\"https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/P2P-Horse-Shoe-Farm-D3A80AAB-9D04-4244-9810-58CC7FDD7050-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"333\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-80342\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Silo Cookhouse<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Williams has already seen the positive impact Suess has had on the team and the food program. \u201cHaving a strong Chef de Cuisine is the cornerstone of any multi-outlet operation,\u201d he says. \u201cHaving Chef Brett on the team has allowed me to turn my focus on the growth of the culinary program to include catering and events separate from the \u00e0 la carte program.
