Why danny brown?

Danny Brown's restaurant career is as varied as his wine bar's eclectic
menu, having honed his culinary techniques in some of Europe's top
kitchens then stepping away from the burners to manage the dinning
rooms of some of Manhattan's premiere restaurants. He began his
culinary career cooking at Bridgewater's South Street Seaport Catering,
a high-end catering company responsible for some of New York's finest
events. Initially taking on the job to support his habit of playing
in rock bands and studying music, Danny had no idea that cooking and
restaurant management would become his ultimate métier.
