Chef/Owner Mark Berkner and James Ablett
Taste Restaurant, Plymouth, CA

After a career spent running bustling kitchens around the country, chef Mark Berkner put down roots amid the rugged Sierra Nevada mountain range and opened Taste Restaurant. With the region’s diverse agriculture at his fingertips, chef Berkner offers diners refined, contemporary California cuisine as striking as the mountain vista itself.
