Ben Berryhill Executive Chef/Owner
Chef Owner Ben Berryhill attributes his appreciation for impeccably fresh ingredients to childhood summers spent on a farm in East Texas. Kitchen jobs in Texas, Hawaii and Colorado followed, prior to his enrolling at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY. When Berryhill was appointed executive chef of Café Annie in 1999, the restaurant won numerous national accolades, including being named one of America's Top Tables by Gourmet. Berryhill co-hosted a local weekly cooking show along with the restaurant's owner, Robert Del Grande.
In 1994, Ben married Marianna Michaels, who was at that time, Café Annie's wine buyer and general manager. Together they made Café Annie one of the world's top restaurants, earning many distinguished local and national awards.
Ben and his wife are now happily settled in South Carolina, where they have not only their new restaurant, but also a new beautiful baby boy, Raymond.
Some other awards include: Zagat's "Best Restaurant," Inside Houston's "Best Chefs 2000" and Gourmet magazine's "Best of City." Berryhill and Café Annie have also been featured in Fine Cooking and Food& Wine magazines.
