👨‍🍳 GETTING TO KNOW CHEF WERNER: A CAREER BUILT ON EXPERIENCE 👨‍🍳

After introducing our incoming Executive Chef, Chef Werner Dietrich, C.E.C., we thought we’d take a closer look at the impressive career that has brought him to Burnt Store Marina Golf & Country Club.

Chef Werner’s culinary career in Southwest Florida spans more than 25 years, with leadership roles in restaurants, luxury hospitality, country clubs, senior living, and private catering.

Here’s a look at his professional journey:

📍 March 2000 – April 2001
Executive Chef | Royal Courtyard — Naples, FL

📍 September 2001 – May 2005
Executive Chef | Manni’s Restaurant & Lounge — Fort Myers, FL

📍 May 2005 – September 2007
Sous Chef & Chef de Cuisine | The Ritz-Carlton Beach Resort — Naples, FL

📍 September 2007 – April 2023
Executive Chef | Olde Hickory Golf & Country Club

During his 15+ years at Olde Hickory, Chef Werner led the culinary operation and focused on elevating the dining experience for club members.

📍 May 2023 – August 2025
Food Service Director | Calusa Harbour — Fort Myers, FL

📍 August 2025 – Present
Executive Chef | Bernwood Catering — Bonita Springs, FL

At Bernwood Catering, Chef Werner has been creating food for high-end private events, weddings, family celebrations, and business dinners, while continuing to lead culinary operations.

And now, beginning on October 5, Chef Werner starts his next chapter as Executive Chef at Burnt Store Marina Golf & Country Club. 🎉

From Germany to Switzerland, around the world aboard the Royal Viking Sun, and eventually throughout Southwest Florida, his career has been defined by culinary leadership, hospitality, and a passion for bringing people together through food.

We’re excited to have his experience, creativity, and leadership here at the club—and we can’t wait for our members to experience what’s ahead. 🍽️🥂

Welcome to Burnt Store Marina, Chef Werner! 👨‍🍳⛳️

👨‍🍳 PLEASE JOIN US IN WELCOMING OUR INCOMING EXECUTIVE CHEF! 👨‍🍳

We’re so excited to introduce you to Chef Werner Dietrich, C.E.C., who will be joining Burnt Store Marina Golf & Country Club as our Executive Chef beginning October 5! 🎉

Chef Werner’s culinary journey began in his mother’s kitchen in Germany, where he discovered his love for cooking and, more importantly, the joy of bringing people together around the table. That passion has taken him across the globe and through an impressive career spanning decades of culinary excellence.

After completing a three-year culinary apprenticeship in Germany, Werner refined his skills in upscale Swiss restaurants before setting sail — literally! 🌎🚢 He traveled around the world three times as a Chef de Partie aboard the Royal Viking Sun, a renowned five-star luxury cruise ship. His culinary adventures also took him to kitchens in Auckland, New Zealand, and Toronto, Canada.

In 2000, Chef Werner brought his international experience to Southwest Florida, beginning as the chef of a premier German restaurant in Naples. His talent and dedication soon led him to the Ritz-Carlton Beach Resort, where he continued to elevate his craft.

In 2007, Werner became Executive Chef at Olde Hickory Golf & Country Club, where he proudly led the culinary team and enhanced the member dining experience for an incredible 15 years.

Most recently, Chef Werner served as Acting Executive Chef at Bernwood Catering in Bonita Springs, preparing exceptional cuisine for private events, weddings, family celebrations, and business dinners.

Now a Punta Gorda resident, Chef Werner is excited to begin this next chapter at Burnt Store Marina Golf & Country Club on October 5. ❤️

His vision goes beyond great food. He’s passionate about building a high-performing culinary team that works seamlessly with our front-of-house staff to create memorable experiences for our members.

“We are looking forward to a vibrant and eventful season. Our focus is on creating unforgettable moments for our members through expertly curated w**e dinners, themed interactive dining nights, and elegant carving stations, alongside flawless ex*****on for our signature golf tournaments and awards banquets.”

Please join us in giving Chef Werner a warm Burnt Store Marina welcome! 👏👨‍🍳

While he won't officially be joining us until October 5, we’re already looking forward to the exciting season ahead and can’t wait for you to experience what Chef Werner and his team have in store! 🍷🥂🍽️
