Chef Michael Lamberson- Dunwoody

Chef Michael Lamberson was born in Naples, Italy on a naval base. At the age of eight Chef Lamberson was inspired to learn to cook, after a trip with his Grandparents to Epcot where he tasted CrĆØme Brulee for the first time. After returning home from that trip he work for two months to perfect his own CrĆØme Brulee recipe, which he still makes today.

The best thing he has ever eaten is a Bleu Cheese from Spain with Truffle Honey. But his favorite dish, of course a Bone-In Filet prepared medium-rare.

When Chef isnā€™t cooking he enjoys making music, and traveling to festivals with his family. Chef Lamberson plans to take his wife on a vacation through the Mediterranean where he can indulged in a culinary tour.
