Colter Peck
Elementary
Colter Peck started his culinary career in Portland, working in renowned kitchens like Le Pigeon and Proud Mary, and later on, working on a farm in Boulder before moving to Austin to cook at Two Hands. There, he met future business partners Chris Arial and Allan Bautista. The trio opened South Lamar eatery Elementary, named for its childlike curiosity and constant education, earlier this summer. At Elementary, Peck serves playful and flavorful dishes inspired by global cuisines with an emphasis on Central Texas farmers and seasonality.
