Chef Russell

Master storyteller and author of In Search of Duende, Russell Lowell is the executive chef and owner of Russell Dean Lowell Premier Catering and has only one distinguished venue in the greater Seattle area: Russell’s of Bothell 

One of Russell’s success secrets is that Chef Lowell cuts all proteins in house and holds fish demos for halibut and salmon to show guests how to hone this craft at home.

A true friend to up-and-coming Washington winemakers, Chef Lowell holds several winemaker dinner events each year to pair their wines with his exquisite cuisine.

Russell attributes his impressive culinary journey to a lifelong passion for food that began in Cuba's coral reefs and mangrove waterways and was nurtured by his family.

His passions extend far beyond the culinary walls. A true adventurer and Renaissance man, Russell Lowell is a "chef of all seasons." He can be found fly fishing all over the world with flies he ties himself, hiking and hunting in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, and holding Elk Camp at various locations each fall.
