Ian Moroney
Chef Ian Moroney moved from Syracuse, NY to Philadelphia in 1998 to work at the original Little Fish. He opened Pumpkin restaurant in 2004 with Hilary Bor, which became a beloved and highly-acclaimed BYOB on South Street for twenty years. He didn't graduate from the CIA, but he did complete one year of junior college. He loves pitbulls, playing guitar, and Saturday lunch at Heavy Metal Sausage.

Sharon Thompson-Schill
Prof. Sharon Thompson-Schill moved to Philadelphia in 1996 to pursue neuroscience research at the University of Pennsylvania. By day, she studies human cognitive function and makes pretty pictures of the brain; by night, she canvasses local restaurants and takes pretty pictures of food. The Inquirer called her the "Godmother of the Philly dining scene" but she's never killed anyone. It's a little known secret (till now) that she also has some good moves in the kitchen.
