Now serving at the helm at The Gables at Chadds Ford, the very affable Chef Murray brings his creative and seasonal approach to the menu. He has built relationships with local farmers where he will continue to “buy fresh, buy local wherever possible.”
This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Carolyn O. Thank you to everyone who participated!
Chef David Murray, the new executive chef of The Gables at Chadds Ford, learned a great deal about food from his mother, a talented cook who you could find volunteering her craft in the kitchen of the family’s Armenian Church located in Cheltenham, PA. Because of his mother, Chef Murray realized at the age of eight that his calling was going to be a chef.
Now serving at the helm at The Gables at Chadds Ford, the very affable Chef Murray brings his creative and seasonal approach to the menu. He has built relationships with local farmers where he will continue to “buy fresh, buy local wherever possible.”
To welcome and celebrate Chef Murray, one very lucky AML fan will win a $100 gift certificate to The Gables at Chadds Ford!
