Farina, known publicly by the moniker Chef Roilty, has a frenetic energy, moving through preparations with the pace one would expect from a professional chef working during service hours, pulling back just enough to ensure that the small crowd of cannabis enthusiasts can contribute. During the occasional pauses he manages a dab off of the rig that sits on the counter next to his cooking utensils, using whatever is available as a carb cap, whether that’s a measuring cup or a recently used kitchen knife.

Farina’s no-nonsense professionalism frequently gives way to a fun-loving stoner persona as he jokes with his students, inviting them to make use of the kitchen dab rig as they rotate stations. It’s a reflection of the dual paths he’s walked for the past several years, working in kitchens such as the Michelin starred Joel Robuchon restaurant in Las Vegas while also plying the craft of hash making.

“I’ve always been around food,” says Farina, following the sumptuous banquet of hash-infused dishes prepared by the class. “I’ve been on every side of the kitchen.”
