Sandor (Shawn) Bittman, our Executive Chef."How Thyme Flies! Having been in the culinary trade for the last 25 years, it's hard to believe the last 12 have flown by here at A Thyme to Cook. Looking to do something new and interesting, I left hotel kitchens behind and joined the crew at ATTC to work in off-premise catering. When I started, my oldest son was six years old....now he's going on 18 and I am a full-time father again with a four-year old. Yep, some say you have to be crazy to be in this trade, I guess it's true. My love of food allows me to try some really cool things such as fizzy grapes and fruit pearls. You've never seen a happier crowd than at my son's daycare when I bring in some new foods for the kids to try.
On top of a busy work schedule, I balance some adult time by volunteering in local government as the Chairman of Planning and Zoning in my hometown of Sprague. I'm also a part time pool shark and a member of the American Pool Players Association for the past 15 years. To round out my busy schedule, I'm also a member of the American Culinary Federation, Connecticut Chef's Association and Knights of Columbus."
