Executive Chef and Owner, Pedro Matamoros’ cooking has won him critical praise and a dedicated following at the DC landmark, Tabard Inn. Pedro worked his way up the ranks of the Tabard kitchen, eventually being slated for the Executive Chef position. The Nicaraguan born chef is eagerly anticipating bringing his take of nouvelle American cuisine to the city where he resides. Matamoros is joined in the kitchen by his Sous Chef, TJ Hardy, a native and resident of downtown Silver Spring, Although you may yet to be familiar with his name, you may be with his cooking, as Sous Chef at Blacks Bar and Kitchen and most recently, David Craig Bethesda. Fellow David Craig alumnus, Andy Boles, will maintain the front of the house duties at the new culinary venture.
