A Vermont native, born into a farming family of 11, Peter grew up believing if you didn't raise it or grow it, you didn't eat it! This early appreciation of the care and energy required to produce great food led Peter to work his way through high school at a local bed and breakfast. Upon graduation, and hungry for more, he attended culinary school at Johnson & Wales in Providence, Rhode Island.

As Executive Chef at Slightly North of Broad, Russ Moore wears two hats (sometimes more): He's responsible for managing the venerable culinary team and cultivating talent. And, he's also a guiding force behind the menu development that continues to delight patrons, 20 years since the restaurant's opening.
