Executive Chef Andrew Haapala shares the details on The Country Club of Virginia’s latest renovations, plus updates on the culinary team, several of whom are among Club + Resort Chef’s 40 Under 40.
“I tend to hire people who are pretty composed, who speak with authority. They understand what they’re there to do—to serve the membership,” Haapala says. “They have proven that they can work well with a team. And then also that they’re just a little bit of fun. … That culture is super important.”
