Chef Sarah Heard is the co-owner and co-chef of Austin's acclaimed Foreign & Domestic , where she's known for boldly flavored, from-scratch cooking and a deep respect for every ingredient. Raised in Conroe, Texas, she learned early from her mother and grandmother to use every part of what you cook, a philosophy she now applies through whole-animal utilization and a focus on sustainability. After working her way up from banquet server to executive sous chef at The Mansion at Judges' Hill, and later leading kitchens at venues like The Winfield Inn and other Austin restaurants, she and her partner, chef Nathan Lemley, purchased Foreign & Domestic in 2017 and later opened Commerce Café in Lockhart in 2020. Today, Sarah is celebrated for pairing comfort and creativity on the plate, championing local farms and producers, and mentoring the next generation of cooks in Austin's tight-knit North Loop neighborhood.
