About the Chef:

David Waltuck has been passionately interested in food, restaurants, and the craft of cooking all his life.  In 1979, David and his wife Karen, opened Chanterelle restaurant in Soho, which was then a fringe neighborhood. The Waltucks were among a small group of young chefs and restaurateurs creating a unique and distinctly American style of food and service, revolutionary then, today the standard. In 1989, again trailblazing, Chanterelle relocated to a larger space in the Mercantile Exchange building in Tribeca.

During the course of its 30-year run, Chanterelle received many accolades, including 2 four-star reviews from the New York Times, 4 James Beard Foundation Awards (Best Chef New York City, Best Service, Best Wine Service, and Best Restaurant U.S.A.), and consistent top ratings for food and service from the Zagat Survey.

In addition to operating Chanterelle, David wrote two successful books, Staff Meals at Chanterelle, and Chanterelle: The Story and Recipes of a Restaurant Classic.  Signed copies are available upon ticketing.
