Rae­gan Stein­berg (@arthursmtl) is a 40-year-old self-pro­claimed ​“retired” cook in charge of busi­ness devel­op­ment at Arthurs Nosh Bar HQ Inc. Co. and mar­ried to her part­ner in work and life. Her love of food start­ed at a very young age; she believes it was a genet­ic dis­or­der passed down by her father, Arthur Stein­berg him­self. She start­ed her career at Mandy’s Gourmet Sal­ads and the now defunct Java U Cater­ing, then pol­ished her chops at the Art Insti­tute of Van­cou­ver. Since then, she’s worked at famed restau­rants such as the Blue Water Cafe and Joe Beef. This laid the foun­da­tion for her career as a pro­fes­sion­al but­ter pas­ta mak­er, or as her kids call her, ​“the best cook­er.” The rest is left to see: She hopes to build a glob­al Arthurs empire, with a loca­tion in every major city, tak­ing pan­cake bat­ter and sprin­kle cook­ies inter­na­tion­al. She dreams of retir­ing in Ver­mont and open­ing a small busi­ness there with her hus­band, sum­mer­ing in Italy, and eat­ing her way around the world with her family.
