Meet the Executive Chef

Steve Morgan

I grew up in the Portland – Metro Area in Oregon, a literal Mecca of food. Some amazing high-end restaurants, equally delicious lesser knowns and entire city blocks of food trucks and carts sharing the most incredible foods from around the world.

I have always loved cooking. My first official job at the age of 15 was at a local fast-food spot and after my first time working the grill I was hooked. Since then, I have spent the last 23 years in restaurants. Serving, bartending, restaurant and bar management all over Portland and Central Washington and as much kitchen time as possible.

I was the bar manager of Awbrey Glen Golf Club in Bend Oregon from 2007 to 2010 with a wine list of around 200 wines under my control. In 2013 I attended the Portland campus of Le Cordon Bleu to hone my skills and create contacts and build rapport with other chefs around the country. My primary background is classic French Cuisine and I love cooking seafood above everything else. It is such a beautiful, clean product when done right. In 2014 I accepted a position as Chef De Cuisine at Vin Du Lac Winery under my mentor and friend Chef Joseph Nagy and instantly fell in love with the Chelan Valley. In 2015, that kitchen was closed for a remodel, and I was forced to move back to Oregon where I took a job as Executive Chef of a Latin fusion restaurant but would return to Vin Du Lac as Executive Chef in 2016 after my son was born. I ran that kitchen for 4 years before hanging up my chef coat for a better schedule with my kids. Now that my kids are a little older, I am excited to continue my passion of cooking for this amazing community I get to call home.

Meet the Owners

When passion
became a reality

Owning a Taphouse has always been a passion with Bob Frediani. It was always a topic of conversation between Bob and Shannon but they never anticipated it becoming realistic until the year 2022. Life has a way of nudging you in a direction that you dream of but never think is obtainable. Bob and Shannon actually thought they were setting themselves up to retire when life spun them in a 180 direction. Bob has been working the corporate job life for over 40 plus years realizing the 9-5 life needed more to it.

The desire to live life of their passion became a reality. Bob and Shannon have been coming to Manson as a family for over 36 years. In 2016 they decided to buy land build their dream home here and live a less stressful life all while enjoying the beauty of Chelan Valley. We had looked for years to find the perfect place to build our Wine bar and Taphouse we just couldn’t find anything. We have had our business name picked and tucked away for years hoping to use it someday! Then we actually thought it would never happen when we stumbled upon “The Point“ a brand new building in Manson WA. We love the town of Manson so it was a perfect fit!

We began in Manson as a family so we feel it’s fitting to begin our passion of owning “TWISTED CORK AND TAPHOUSE” here!
