Chef Dave Cruz’s Ad Hoc Buttermilk Fried Chicken

Written By Shelly Allen

A longtime fixture of the Napa Valley food and wine scene, and friend of Paula Kornell, Cruz opened Milestone Provisions in the Oxbow Public Market in Napa in 2021, in partnership with

restaurateur Eric Lilavois and Five Dot Ranch. Cruz is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and James Beard award-winning cookbook author who in 2006 was tapped by Chef Thomas Keller to be the

opening chef at Ad Hoc, where he helped make fried chicken the star.
