As executive chef of Ralph Brennan's café b in Metairie, Louisiana, Michael Uddo is in his element, quietly establishing the friendly neighborhood bistro as a benchmark of great southern Louisiana cooking in the New Orleans suburb. café b's crowd-pleasing menu of elevated neighborhood fare draws a devoted clientele, whom Uddo credits with fueling his own creative drive to delight them, time and again. "You hear a lot these days about 'chef-driven' restaurants," he says. "I'm the opposite, focused on the guest and taking my cues from these hometown experts – thank goodness for the locals!" His signature style, infusing classic New Orleans culinary traditions with a touch of 21st century pizzazz, keeps them coming back.
