The Food Market

The Food Market A Baltimore International College grad, Chad has stayed true to his convictions. Vernon's City Cafe. "I like giving people food that they want to eat.
(2002)

Chef Chad Gauss is a native Baltimorean who has risen up the ranks all the way to chef and owner of the much-loved Hampden hot spot, The Food Market and now his newest creation, La Food Marketa, which opens in September 2016 in Quarry Lake in Baltimore County. While he always wants to be creative and expand his businesses, he remains humble and appreciative of his success. In 2010, Baltimore Magaz

ine named Chad “Best New Chef " while he was Executive Chef at Mt. Then, in 2012, he opened The Food Market and changed the food scene in Baltimore. In 2015, he created The Private Kitchen (on the ground floor of The Food Market) which provides guests with a private dining experience, as well as an opportunity to enjoy the excellent food, drink and service of Baltimore's best restaurants in a completely different way. Chad continually works to make classics his own - whether it's for private catering clients, the Orioles and Ravens organizations and players, or restaurant guests. His food is often described as "upscale, yet down to earth" and he strives to make his guests comfortable and happy. It's that simple." For that, Baltimoreans are thankful and keep coming back to The Food Market over and over.
