Chef Joseph Wrede
Chef Joseph Wrede is a Food & Wine Best New Chef, the winner of several AAA Four Diamond Awards, several DiRoNA Awards and has received both Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast distinctions. Joseph's Culinary Pub (JCP) was featured on The Food Network’s Triple D with Guy Fieri in 2019.
This is the third incarnation of Wrede’s original Joseph’s Table, conceived in Taos, New Mexico in 1995, for which he is well known and loved within the region and beyond. JCP is designed to be a platform for Chef Wrede’s unique and uncompromising vision on traditional and contemporary cuisine, both regional and international.
Regarding the restaurant as a process much like theater, Wrede envisions the experience of dining in his restaurant as an interactive play between the pub and the public, with his sights aimed at rivaling high art. Service is an art, décor is an art, food is indisputably an art, and Wrede wishes to accept nothing less than art on all levels. The dining experience begins the moment a person enters the restaurant, the interior of which is imbued with custom painted walls, a collection of antique copper, frescos and sculptures collected by Wrede’s family. The message one gets upon entering is that they are about to enjoy something wholly unique. Chef Wrede welcomes all to come and partake in this exciting process and come out of the experience fully nourished.
