Chef Darian Bryan on pioneering Jamaican fine dining in the US, becoming a personal chef for Buffalo Bills MVP quarterback Josh Allen, and proving the doubters wrong

Born in Jamaica, now living in Buffalo, NY, Chef Darian Bryan has elevated Jamaican cuisine to the fine dining level at his restaurant, and through his work as a private chef. He has also amassed a roster of Buffalo Bills NFL players including MVP Qquarterback Josh Allen as clients, as an in-home private chef, preparing ready-to-heat meals, and as a special event caterer. He is engaging, entertaining, and an inspiration—from a childhood of poverty without electricity or running water to a first job in America at Denny’s, to shining in culinary school, to successful chef and restaurateur.
