CHEF LORI DALEY
ECYC Executive Chef
ECYC's amazing Chef Lori Daley oversees galley operations at the Essex Corinthian Yacht Club. Chef Daley has a long history of experience in the restaurant business that has its origin when she ran the ECYC Galley in the 1980s!
Lori has worked at many locations in the food services industry, including the Old Lyme Inn, the Copper Beech Inn, and the Inn at Mystic. She has overseen many large kitchen operations and has a wealth of catering experience. More recently, Chef Daley has been the chef behind the delicious prepared meals offered by Coffee's Country Store in Old Lyme. She is renowned for her delicious comfort meals as well as fantastic pastries and desserts.
The ECYC motto is stewardship of an “environment of fellowship for yachtsmen and women at a modest price,” which includes a sustainable galley operation offering quality food and service at a reasonable price. Chef Lori and her staff provide us with a variety of tried and true favorites, periodic specials, as well as catering for our club events. Please join Chef Daley and her staff at our club and sample her delicious food. You will not be disappointed!
The ECYC Galley is also available to provide on- and off-site catering to our members.
