Owner & Chef Tene Shake |
|
Tene Shake was
born and raised in Monterey. Having five older brothers, he
was given the nickname "Tene" because he was the youngest
brother. This would soon become his trademark. Growing up on
the Wharf, he was trained in the family business and gained a
great knowledge of seafood at a young age. |
|
After graduating
college and attending culinary school, in 1994 he was awarded
one of "America's Top Chefs" by the American Academy of
Restaurants and Hospitality Sciences. Tene has cooked on
television, and was featured on "Celebrated Chefs". Along with
his brothers, he owns several restaurants, fish markets,
boats, keeping with the long family heritage. |

In 2000, Tene
opened his first restaurant called Isabella's Italian Seafood.
The restaurant is located in the Historic Fisherman's Wharf at
60 Old Fisherman's Wharf. In honor of his mother and Italian
heritage, the menu uses the freshest seafood available, with
Italian accents. With spectacular harbor views from every
table, customers can watch the marine life -- seals, otters,
sea gulls and more -- while they dine. Or, for a stunning view
of boats docked in the harbor, customers can dine on the
outdoor patio. |
|
In 2002, Tene
opened his second restaurant, Cabo's Wild Mexican Seafood. The
authentic Mexican food with a panoramic view of the boats in
the harbor so close you can almost touch them, makes for one
of Monterey's most sought after Mexican restaurants. Specialty
dish: Chicken Chili Rellenos. |
|
Lattitudes is
Tene's third restaurant which opened in 2005. The perfect
setting for a romantic dinner or customers seeking a relaxing
ambience, the restaurant overlooks the Pacific Ocean in the
cove at Lover's Point. The food at Lattitudes centers around
seafood, but with a more modern focus. |
|
Tene also owns a waterfront shopping
plaza on historic Cannery Row which houses the Monterey
Culinary Center. Tene is working on a seafood cookbook,
produces his own televised cooking show, and he plans to open more restaurants as well. |
