Bio: Tinker Street Executive Chef Tyler Shortt has enriched the Indianapolis restaurant landscape with a uniquely compassionate approach to cooking. His focus on local and sustainable ingredients inspires dishes that are as good for the earth as they are for the soul. Drawing from 11 years of experience in the industry, he produces unexpected twists on classics with precise technical expertise. His wide and variable skillsets come from collaborating and working with great culinary minds from NYC’s Eleven Madison Park, Chef Tyler Herald at Patachou, and Chef Braedon Kellner at Tinker Street.
Many say that Chef Tyler’s real innovation comes in the unique way he runs his kitchen. Shirking the traditional chef role of high-minded auteur in favor of a collaborative approach, Chef Tyler has led the talented Tinker Street team in envisioning menus that blend innovation and tradition seamlessly since 2019.
