It’s not every day you meet an individual as passionate and creative as Chef Davin Waite. Davin is a sustainability advocate, innovator, craftsman, and Oceanside restauranteur responsible for local favorites Wrench & Rodent Seabasstropub, Shoots Fish & Beer, and The Plot.
We stopped by Wrench & Rodent, Davin’s inventive sushi and seafood restaurant, to pick his brain on zero waste cooking, pushing the boundaries within the plant-based movement, the craziest thing he’s ever put on a menu, and more.
