About Executive Chef Nico Romo:
Lyon, France native Nico Romo was recruited by Patrick Properties owners and operators of Fish restaurant, The William Aiken House, Lowndes Grove and The American Theater, in May 2007. As Executive Chef of one of Charleston's finest hospitality companies, Romo takes pride in using seasonal local ingredients to create flavorful, innovative French-Asian inspired dishes. Menu highlights include roast pork dumplings with sweet soy, goat cheese spring rolls, vermillion snapper, bouillabaisse and slow-cooked palmetto bass.
After graduating at the age of 15 from Helene Boucher Culinary Art School in Venissieux, France, Romo honed his skills through internships for two renowned Relais & Chateaux properties, La Pyramide in Vienne, France, and Restaurant Pierre Orsi in Lyon. Romo moved to the US in 1999 to work as Sous Chef at Chez Philippe in the Peabody Hotel in Memphis, TN. Here Romo had the opportunity to attend and cook for two James Beard house dinners as well as manage the kitchen of the four-star, nationally acclaimed restaurant. Following his tenure at the Peabody Hotel, Romo worked at Cielo in Memphis, and was recruited soon after to work as Sous Chef at The Café at The Ritz-Carlton Buckhead in Atlanta, GA. Romo went on to later become Executive Chef at The Café at East Andrews in Buckhead and The Milton House in Alpharetta, GA.
Most recently, Romo was recruited to open the third location of the B.E.D. restaurant concepts in downtown Atlanta. Located inside Atlanta’s first luxury, boutique hotel, The Glenn, B.E.D., which has sister properties in New York and Miami, is known to attract celebrities for its contemporary blend of décor, cuisine and style.
