A fter 12 years with Spokane's Twigs Bistro & Martini Bar, chef Jared Schlosser has reached the top of the ladder. A few months ago, Schlosser was promoted to Twigs' corporate executive chef, going from overseeing the kitchen of its River Park Square location to all nine of Twigs' regional restaurants in Spokane, Tri-Cities, Vancouver and outside Washington in Utah, Idaho and Texas. Born and raised in the Inland Northwest, Schlosser says he's always loved to cook, and became hooked after landing one of his first restaurant jobs at the now closed El Sombrero Mexican restaurant in North Spokane. In 2004, he enrolled in the culinary program at Spokane Community College, and afterwards bounced around among a few local restaurants (Anthony's, Prospector's) before landing in 2008 at Twigs' original location in Wandermere.
