Table 33 chef reflects on brush with the Dayton Accords and history
DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) — Keith Taylor is the executive chef at Table 33. But he also shares a special connection to NATO.
Thirty years ago, Taylor was a line cook at the four-star l'Auberge when the restaurant served people from Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and the U.S. moments after they had negotiated what are now commonly known as the Dayton Accords.
'To be a part of something like that, it feels special to me even at the time, even though I'm a carefree 25-year-old just wanting to have fun and trying to learn cooking,' said Taylor. 'So, this was a significant, significant thing in my life.'
Taylor said he had always wanted to be a chef, so he was very excited to be serving people from different countries back in his 20s.
For the NATO Parliamentary Assembly this weekend, Taylor served members of the Swedish delegation, along with people from Finland, Latvia and other countries.
