After 4 years teaching baking and baking science at Baltimore International Culinary College, she headed for the Murphin Ridge Inn in West Union, Ohio, where she cooked with local ingredients and used a several acre garden to provide menu items. She spent seven wonderful years there until the owners retired.<\/p>\n<p>After a year at the Boone Tavern Hotel in Berea, Chateau Morrisette brought Natasha to the Floyd area as its chef.She served as chef at Oddfellas Cantina for five years before starting her own catering business.<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to enjoying her food for many years at her new location.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Natasha Shishkevish has been an integral part of the local culinary scene for years, but she has been missing from the restaurant scene since she left Oddfellas Cantina to start her own catering business.
