That Boy Good
About
Mark Millwood developed a sophisticated palate at a very early age; he lived in Japan, Australia, California and Mississippi, all before the age of 10. His first restaurant job at 13 years old was washing dishes at a small diner in Hanford, California. Intrigued by what was happening in the kitchen, he asked if he could start working on the line. By the time he finished high school, he had worked his way to lead line cook. In 1990, Mark followed in his father’s footsteps and joined the US Navy. He cooked his way through Desert Storm and Desert Shield. Being in the Navy taught him creativity – how to turn a kitchen full of tidbits into a gourmet feast fit for Naval Officers. Mark’s last corporate journey brought him back to his home state of California as Senior Banquet Chef at The Ritz Carlton/JW Marriott in the LA Live arena. He created menus for high-ranking officials from China, Mexico and the United States. Mark regularly executed major functions such as the MTV Awards, Grammys, Emmy’s, NFL, NBA, X Games and Pac 12 Collegiate Basketball Tournements. Now, Mark has completed a long time dream of opening his own restaurant, That Boy Good in Oceanside California. With his wife Miss Kim by his side, they have created a fun southern style BBQ hot spot they are proud to share with all.
