Chef Maximillian Petty & Ferrell Alvarez
“We’re hosting the series because we admire these guys, we want to showcase talent from across the country and help put Tampa Bay on the forefront for the national culinary conversation. The menus we’re doing won’t be safe or mundane; they’re for the adventurous and curious — we’re really humbled to have the opportunity.”
