Chef and owner of Jar, Suzanne Tracht, together with Preech Narkthong, the Jar Chef de Cuisine, use traditional American cooking techniques and ingredients that are in season to create delectable heart-warming meals. The restaurant design and decor at Jar are very simple yet chic. Prepare to be transported back to the 40s into the supper club era. The Jar menu features traditional American chophouses and presents it with a modern twist. Just like other American steakhouses, they offer many choices of appetizers, salads, braised meats, and roasted and broiled food with the addition of sautées and wonderful side dishes served a la carte that varies as often as the season changes. Crab deviled eggs for starters, the juicy signature Kansas City Steak for mains, Lobster Bearnaise on the side, banana cream pie for dessert enjoyed with a glass of Chateau La Grave makes for a truly satisfying and soul filling meal at the Jar.

Q: How did you get started in the culinary arts?

I have had a passion for food my whole life: how it looks, how it smells, how it tastes. I always knew I wanted to be a chef, so I worked hard, stayed focused on my dream, and took the necessary steps to achieve my goal.

Q: As a chef, what are three things you can't live without?

  1. Extra virgin olive oil
  2. Lemon
  3. Fresh herbs
I simply cannot cook without them!

Q: What is your favorite dish?

I would have to say a dry aged, rib eye, rare.

Q: What's next for you?

I am in the process of writing my first cookbook, which is very exciting for me, and am planning on opening another restaurant in the next couple years.
