Brassard’s inspiration and tutorage enabled Dallen to become the first SMSD student to become a national finalist for the prestigious “Best Team Chef” national competition which Jonathon placed 2nd in the nation sparking the birth of the Broadmoor’s commitment to Culinary Excellence! Dallen’s finish in the competition opened the door to be mentored by notable James Beard Chefs Kevin Rathbun and Gary Mennie in the Atlanta metropolitan area during his time at the Art Institute of Atlanta.

Upon his arrival back in the KC  metropolitan area, Dallen took his first executive chef position creating the concept “Tonic” which feature eclectic bites in a relaxed atmosphere in Old Overland Park location.
