Ricky Moore
Last-known location Moore made a name for himself cooking soulful New American fare at South Water Kitchen before serving as executive chef of The Parrot Cage, a restaurant staffed by students from the Washburne Culinary Institute.
Update In 2006, Moore moved to Washington, D.C., and helmed the kitchens at Agraria and Indebleu, focusing on farm-to-table dishes and modern Indian-influenced cuisine, respectively. While in D.C., he competed against Michael Symon on Iron Chef America’s Thanksgiving battle. Seeking more time with his burgeoning family, he then relocated to his home state of North Carolina. He now runs the kitchen at Raleigh-Durham wine bar Glasshalfull, where his Farmer’s Supper series celebrates crops of individual regional farmers.
