Executive Chef Ben McPherson

A shout out to my brother, Ben, who just became Executive Chef of Eclipse di Luna, a popular trendy Spanish restaurant in Atlanta. He has been working hard for years, and this is his first executive chef position.

If you’re in Atlanta, you should go there. Ben’s food is always the best.

    I can attest to the menu on May 8th…incredible! The shrimp and zucchini fritters were gone within the first half hour and those had to be the best salmon croquettes I’ve ever had!

    Ben is da man! He is so hired…well, next time he comes back in town.
