Health-Conscious Chef: Matthew Kenney
Restaurateur Matthew Kenney is a renowned raw food chef and author, and the creator of the first licensed raw food academy. His groundbreaking restaurant/shop/school 105degrees incorporates communal dining, an open kitchen, the “glass box” 105degrees Shop where an array of products related to the raw/living foods lifestyle can be purchased, as well as the 105degrees Academy, with classes for the layperson and the professional interested in raw food techniques to learn from an innovative team.
