Gilded Fork Kitchen Elves





Fennel

Our darling Fennel is a house favorite, but he has a terrible penchant for dropping things (which makes him a Stiva favorite). He is fantastic with fresh herbs, however, so he spends much of his time tending to the Gilded Fork garden. Prior to joining the GF staff, Fennel was an esteemed kitchen elf at a prestigious Institution-That-Must-Not-Be-Named. We're not sure what happened to his left eye, but he's very self-conscious about it, so we don't ask.





Pepper

Miss Thing refused to wear a proper uniform for her head shot, so we apologize for any undue excitement this may have caused. Pepper is known for her sass, and is thus most talented at scrubbing pots and pans, a chore often handed to her. She has an irresistible need to taunt those in charge, particularly Mistress Jennifer, so the kitchen can sometimes get quite loud. Prior to coming to the Gilded Fork kitchen, Pepper was a cabaret singer at Under the Rainbow in West Clover, a suburb of Dallas.





Tarragon

Monsieur Tarragon hails from southwestern France, where he trained under master chef Guy Cancuque. He is accustomed to hunting for truffles (hence his desire to disguise himself) and eating large bowls of cassoulet. He imparts a bit of foreign flair to our kitchen, and Chef Mark frequently turns to him for advice. Sadly, due to the elf's filthy temper, he often finds himself cleaning the root cellar.
