Chef Eric Kalwarczyk came to the Inn at Woodstock Hill in April of 2007. He began his career in food service as a teenager at Heritage Country Club in Charlton, MA. While he was employed as a short order cook, he began to prepare the meals for large banquets. After high school, Eric graduated from Worcester State College. After a short period of working in other fields, he decided to return to the kitchen and enrolled and graduated from Newbury College School of Culinary Arts. Eric has worked in several central Massachusetts restaurants and institutions but most notably Thymes Square on Hudson under chef, Cary Killeen.
