EXECUTIVE CHEF LYNN

MEET POETRY INN'S

EXECUTIVE CHEF LYNN VITA

A native of San Diego, California, Lynn had always had a strong passion for cooking and creating dishes based on the wide range of ingredients that are available in California year-round. In 2011, she relocated to the Napa Valley to study Culinary Arts at the Napa Valley Culinary School. Directly following graduation, she began working in the culinary department at Simi Winery in Healdsburg where she put her knowledge of menu planning to work, pairing local wines with regionally specific dishes that drew in tourists and locals alike. In 2012, Lynn accepted a position as sous chef at Poetry Inn, a property she had always admired for its commitment to perfection and unparalleled luxury experiences. Demonstrating excellent talent and ability, Lynn was promoted to executive chef soon after joining the team.

In 2019, searching to expand her culinary resume once again, Lynn departed Poetry Inn to serve as a private chef for a high-profile family in Marin County. While she missed the hospitality world and ability to interact with an array of guests and their respective palates, this experience was invaluable for Lynn in terms of adapting and honing her culinary talents to suit the needs of a discerning client base that often included celebrities and leaders in business and politics. Having always kept Poetry Inn close to her heart, Lynn was lured back to the property in January of 2021 with the opportunity to expand the hotel’s culinary offerings in line with the forthcoming new aesthetic by Erin Martin Design. “Poetry Inn is different from any other hotel property in the Napa Valley,” says Lynn. “Its intimate nature allows me to connect meaningfully with our guests and build relationships. I look forward to continuing to elevate and expand the culinary offerings at Poetry Inn.”
