Growing up in New Orleans has led Chef Jordan to have an appreciation, love and passion for not only the cuisine that the city is famous for but a love for cuisine from all over the world. The French Quarter is not a typical location for most to grow up in, and he is not your typical chef.
Chef Jordan has made his mark on the Houston food scene – serving as Executive Chef at Rudyards British Pub, Chef de Cuisine at Doris Metropolitan, and Executive Chef at Prohibition Supperclub & Bar. Prior to that, he was the Executive Chef and Catering Manager of the Eatsie Boys food truck and 8th Wonder Brewery, as well as the Executive Chef and Kitchen Manager at Boheme.
In between running kitchens, Economy has made two appearances on Food Network’s Chopped and has also worked as a consultant for food truck owners and food stand operators.
When he is not at Dak & Bop, Chef Economy enjoys going out to see local bands, having a nice whiskey over good conversation, and having a good meal at his favorite hole in the wall establishments around the Houston area.
