Chef Michael Vincent Ferreri of Irwin's

Raised by two chefs, Michael Vincent Ferreri was destined to do great things. Michael left everything behind in upstate New York to start fresh here in Philadelphia, where he began working with Michael Solomonov at Zahav, Joey Baldino at Zeppoli and Tyler Akin at Stock and Res Ipsa. After blowing up the scene with Res, Michael took over the kitchen at Irwin's in South Philadelphia where, through his minimalist approach to Sicilian cuisine, he has made Irwin's a must-go restaurant in Philadelphia.
