Our Philosophy On Culinary Sourcing
THE SIXTY TWO™ Society , we believe the most meaningful dining experiences begin long before a plate is set or a glass is poured. They begin with intention; careful choices made thoughtfully, quietly, and with respect for the people and places behind every ingredient.
Our chefs, Mark Adair and Nicolas Ferreira, approach sourcing as an extension of the hospitality equation itself.
Having spent their careers at the highest levels of the culinary world, they understand that exceptional food is created through restraint, clarity, and uncompromising standards. Their philosophy is simple: start with the best possible ingredients, honor their origin, and allow their natural character to lead and run point.
Every producer we work with is selected for more than quality alone. We seek partners who share our values, those who respect the land, practice responsible stewardship, and carry forward traditions rooted in craft and care. From ranches and fisheries to farms and mills, each source is chosen with purpose, guided by long-standing relationships and proven excellence.
This approach gives our Chefs the freedom to cook with confidence and authenticity. It allows menus to evolve naturally with the seasons while maintaining consistency, depth, and integrity, and it ensures that every meal served at THE SIXTY TWO™ Society reflects the same attention to detail and thoughtfulness that defines the entire Society member experience.
Sourcing for us is not about prestige or trend, but rather it is about trust; trust in our Chefs’ expertise, trust in our Partners’ practices, and trust that when everything begins with intention, the experience at the table will always feel genuine, elevated, and deeply satisfying.
