Background

Chef Kyle Wallace grew up in Manchester, NH, where he attended a boarding school in Vermont and found a passion for slow foods and farm-to-table cooking. He later returned to Vermont to attend culinary school at New England Culinary Institute, where he learned all the skills to begin his cooking career. 

After culinary school, Wallace’s career began with an internship in Cambridge before moving north to Maine to jumpstart his career as a cook at Natalie’s, a Relais Chateaux property. Making his way back to Boston after gaining ample experience, he worked his way up to Executive Sous Chef. He was then promoted to Chef De Cuisine and moved to the Financial District until the pandemic hit.

New Beginnings

In 2021 Wallace found his new home on Newbury St at Sonsie. Operating Sonsie as the Executive Chef, he oversees and creates all menus. Sonsie serves a top-notch internationally inspired fare.
