Chef Michael Batt

Described by NY Magazines’ Hal Rubenstein as “ingenious”, Michael William Batt hails from NYC.

Batt has been featured as a guest chef on various Food Network programs as well as received highly acclaimed reviews from The NY Times, NY Magazine, The NY Post & Crain’s Magazine.

Batt graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in 1990 at the top of his class and immediately began working in some of Manhattans top eateries, including Patroon, Lespinasse, The Royalton & Windows on the World. His talent and successes which continue to impress his mentors and master chefs Geoffrey Zakarian (Town, LeCirque), Gray Kunz (L’Espinasse) & Terrence Brennan (Picholine, Artisinal) were the same talents and skill that earned him the Executive Chef positions at City Hall—the restaurant, Thom, and Terrence Brennan’s Seafood & Chop House.
