The Climb
Pastry work is often the station where a kitchen’s tolerances become visible: butter temperature, set timing, repetition, restraint. At The Point in Saranac Lake, New York, Danthony Foster worked from 2014 as Pastry Sous Chef, building a practice around exactness and control rather than display. The work required decisions small enough to be missed by a dining room, but large enough to change the plate. Continuity inside one house can deepen a cook’s reading of standards, systems, and service. The Point in Saranac Lake, New York became that through-line for Danthony Foster: first as Pastry Sous Chef from 2014, then as Executive Chef from 2024. The progression kept the same address while widening the responsibility from a precise pastry role to full kitchen leadership. Authority in a kitchen often comes from accumulated habits rather than a single appointment. The same disciplines that define strong pastry work — balance, structure, timing, and finesse — informed Danthony Foster’s move into broader command at The Point. His record there reads as a steady expansion of responsibility within one established operation.
