197: Anne Quatrano, Star Provisions & Bacchanalia (Atlanta, GA)

Anne Quatrano has helped steer the trajectory of Atlanta's dining scene for more than two decades through one simple principle—showcase local ingredients prepared with precision and presented artfully. She's won numerous James Beard nominations and awards, is very committed to the industry through her presence on boards and with culinary non-profits, and her restaurants: Star Provisions, Bacchanalia, W.H. Stiles Fish Camp, Floataway Cafe, and Pancake Social, all serve Atlanta in different ways, but all deliciously. Beyond all the professional accolades, though, she's also an inspiration to other chefs in the kitchen, teaching young chefs in her organization how to excel and sharing her tireless passion for cooking and community.
