Executive Chef Gregory Allyn Executive Chef Gregory Allyn The newest member of our team, Chef Gregory Allyn adds a new dimension of culinary experience to UnCorked. Raised in the Baltimore, MD area, he has been in the restaurant industry for over 20 years. He has worked in both front and back-of-the-house roles with establishments such as The Classic Catering People, Le LaFayette, 1789 Restaurant in Georgetown, and Nichi Bei Kai Steak House of Japan. An artist at heart, it is the creativity of cuisine that caused Gregory to train with Chef Laurent Brazier of Laguna Culinary Arts in the classic French tradition. The honesty of food – and his mother’s influence – are what inspired Chef Gregory Allyn to finally pursue his passion and found Francois Allyn Chef Services Inc. where he provides the highest quality catering, culinary instruction, and personal chef services to his clients. Chef Allyn creates a unique and exciting small plate experience at UnCorked on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. On Thursday nights, we expand the traditional wine tasting experience by pairing the wines with a special menu designed specifically to enhance the enjoyment of the featured wines. |
