Chef Ryan’s cooking draws deeply from Contemporary American and Southern traditions with a focus on locally sourced, highly seasonal, and foraged foods. His cuisine celebrates ingredients at their peak and also preserves them to carry those flavors forward and extend their season. Ryan has honed his craft at a distinguished range of kitchens — from the French-inspired bistro Margot and Nordic fine dining destination Aska (★★), to Mediterranean coastal restaurant Crevette and, most recently, Lord's.
