Simple Soul Kitchen
Paul Cummings
Best known locally for his gig as Executive Chef at the popular former Princeton restaurant, Mimi's, Paul knows his way around a kitchen. "I've been in kichens since I was 14, from dishwasher to corporate trainer at Applebees," explains Paul, who holds a degree from the Pennsylvania School of Culinary Arts, and has also worked at Heidel House and Norton's in Green Lake, Gallagher's in Ripon and Stone Cellar Brew Pub in Appleton.
In 2016, Paul decided to strike out on his own, with Green Lake Kitchens as his base of operations. The name of his business--Simple Soul Kitchen--evokes images of earthy, real foods and deep connections formed in eating together. Aimed at smaller, in-home gatherings, Paul's catering business is all about the experience. "I want you to have the experience of a restaurant in your home," he explains.
