“So many good people on this list, but Craig Flinn is a treasure,” says one reader of Chives’s chef, who’s taken home many Best of Food honours over the years. With menus rotating by the season, Flinn’s known for serving up only the finest in creative, locally sourced food. Whether it’s double-baked goat cheese soufflé, cold water shrimp and bay scallop egg rolls, or dark charcuterie (mmm, prosciutto), his creations are sure to get your mouth watering before you even make reservations. And if you can’t get enough, be sure to check out his newest brainchild, 2 Doors Down, where comfort food is king.
