Back in junior high, Carey was placed in home economics instead of workshop by mistake. However, this turned out to be a happy accident as it sparked a lifelong interest in cooking that eventually unfolded into a full-fledged career. After enrolling in culinary school and spending years cutting his teeth at various private clubs, Carey was ready to go at it on his own after settling down in Norwalk, CT. Now, you can sample his spread of Southern comfort food at Chef Zip Exchange.
