Pittman was co-owner and chef of the Pizzeria in the Heights and previously owned Palette Catering and Gourmet to go. Morrell was chef and owner of Starving Artists Cafe from 2006-14 and was at Sonny Williams Steak Room and Simply the Best Catering before that.
Poirot trained in France and the U.K.; Pittman is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and Morrell graduated from the Florida Culinary Institute.
