The Mill Glen Arbor seeks executive chef for 47-seat restaurant on Crystal River

From staff reports

The iconic Mill on the Crystal River, which Turner Booth has restored since he won zoning approval in a public referendum vote in August 2021, aims to reopen this spring and include a 47-seat all-day cafe and fine-dining restaurant. The onetime flour mill built in the 1800s, which was used as a recording studio in the 1970s, will also offer lodging, a gallery and museum. Health and wellness classes may be part of the mix, too.

Early this month The Mill posted a job for an Executive Chef.

“As we begin the final stages of finishing the renovation, we are in search of a culinary professional who identifies with the philosophy of hospitality we seek to redefine,” the advertisement states. “We believe in creating space for the service worker to shine — a reshaping of the guest perspective.”

“The Mill will offer a relaxing and refined atmosphere for discerning guests through design, community and wellbeing principles.”

Booth is partnering with Fernhaus, a new Northern Michigan hospitality group, to redesign the Mill and restaurant.
