Those acquainted with the New England culinary scene will likely already be familiar with Carron’s work. As the new coverage explores, he has spent 20 years innovating in the restaurant scene across multiple ventures, and has brought everything he has learned over that time to the design and execution of Post 1917.

The restaurant offers a refreshingly refined take on gourmet dining, trading the pomp and bluster that New England diners have come to expect from their upscale eateries for a more stripped-back, yet still very classy, experience.

One might ask upon eating at Post 1917, however: What inspired all of this? In an era where fast-casual dining rules the roost, why bother elevating and innovating? Of course, Carron has plenty to say on all of this, and more.

Commitment To Innovation

Carron has been famously outspoken about the importance of local cuisine and inventive cooking in the past, and this new profile provides a glimpse into the reasons behind that. Carron says that his commitment to these ideas began out of necessity, then evolved over time as he iterated on his personal favorite classic dishes.

Discussing his personal method, Carron stated, “By paying such close attention to detail I’m able to blend classic techniques that I’ve learned throughout my career with modern innovations. I respect traditional methods but am always searching for ways to improve or present dishes so that they are new and exciting for our customers, and it all comes down to the level of detail.”

Carron’s Advice For New Businesses

As he explains, his humble beginnings as a line cook and meteoric rise to the top of the industry showed him what a successful business looks like at every level. He believes that a truly outstanding restaurant should be agile and prepared to meet challenges as they arise, while remaining uncompromising in their overall vision.
