Adrian Cyr

Chef Adrian Cyr has been in the restaurant business for over twenty years. At the age of fifteen, Adrian entered the food industry by working for a small caterer. Following a move to Cape Cod, he took a position as dishwasher for the Red Inn. For the next eleven years, he worked his way up to bus boy, waiter, bartender, maitre d', and manager, all the while gaining valuable experience with front-of-the-house operations. In 1983 he began formal culinary training at the Cambridge School of Culinary Arts. He graduated from the program with honors.

Returning to the Red Inn as a chef, Adrian became involved in developing a new menu concept for the restaurant and reforming kitchen procedures. He helped develop an awareness program on an under-utilized species of fish that resulted in an annual "trash fish" banquet. The banquet encourages chefs to develop trash fish recipes and provide restaurant owners and the general public an opportunity to learn about trash fish consumption and use.

In 1985 Adrian opened Adrian's, located in North Truro, MA. Adrian's has been reviewed in Boston Magazine, The Boston Globe, and other local publications.
