executive chef adam jankowski
Chef Adam Jankowski joined the Mount Ida Reserve team after a five-year career at The Inn at Little Washington. As the lead cook under Chef Patrick O’Connell, Adam was part of the team that helped bring The Inn its Three- Michelin Star rating and La Liste ranking of the #11 restaurant in the world.
Adam started helping out in his mother’s restaurant at the age of 10. While studying at UVA-Wise in south-western Virginia he picked up after-class shifts in kitchens and found inspiration from the chefs who he worked under. He and his wife Chelsey have also recently welcomed their first daughter Evelyn into their family.
