Executive Chef

From the tender age of nine, Chef Eppie Connolly found her calling in the kitchen, captivated by the sizzling sound and savory aroma of fresh farm eggs prepared by her grandmother. That early experience ignited a lifelong passion for the culinary arts—a passion that now fuels her role as Executive Chef at Adachi, a Japanese-inspired restaurant located in Birmingham, Michigan.
Chef Connolly brings a refined and creative approach to Asian-infused cuisine, crafting vibrant dishes and house-made pastries that balance global flavors with meticulous technique. Her unwavering commitment to using only the freshest ingredients—sourced from around the world—sets the foundation for a menu that surprises and delights both loyal patrons and curious newcomers alike.
