With a passion for cooking and an innovative
approach to modern American cuisine, Chef
Stephen delights locals with a HAVEN for
extraordinary cuisine. Herman has
been a part of the celebrated culinary team
since the restaurant’s grand opening in
2003, and now brings his unique touch to the
HAVEN menu.
Growing up in Knoxville, Tennessee, Stephen
would watch in awe as his mother, an
exceptional baker, would spend hours in the
kitchen. This sparked Stephen’s love
for cooking at a young age, and he has never
looked back. Inspired by his mother, Herman
decided to pursue a culinary career.
While studying for a culinary arts degree at
Johnson and Wales University, Stephen worked
with renowned Chef Bob Waggoner at the
prestigious Charleston Grill. His desire to
excel and his devotion to Chef Waggoner's
mentoring garnered a special invitation by
Chef Waggoner to cook in some of France's
finest restaurants.
Upon graduating magna cum laude, Stephen set
his sights on the Atlanta culinary scene.
Chef Joel Antune recognized his achievements
and immediately brought him on board at
Joel, one of Atlanta's finest French
restaurants. |
