… Chef Mark Noseda, best known for his menus at Twisted Rooster and Crooked Goose, died unexpectedly August 16th of a heart attack. He was about to open a new restaurant in Port Huron.
In his memory, area chefs have pulled together to start a Chef Mark Noseda Scholarship fund. The scholarship will help students attend GRCC’s Secchia Institute for Culinary Education.
