Iron Sous Chef Ian
Ian Grossman

Hailing from Chicago, Illinois, Ian is the wild card of the Iron Chef Louie operation. If it weren't for Ian's hard work beside Louie in the Brookhawk kitchen, you'd be eating pizza bagels every Iron Chef Thursday. After training at the Culinary Institute of America, Ian's skills have been honed in such fine kitchens as Le Bernadin in New York and L'Espelier here in Beantown. After suffering his share of setbacks from causing employees to collapse in tears, he has landed himself a gig with the highly successful Radius group in Boston (the most respected restaurant organization in Boston, and maybe in the US). Currently, he is a manager of the Great Bay Restaurant in Kenmore Square.

Ian's hard work and humility truly make Iron Chef possible. He earns none of the glamour, fame, and supermodels availed to Louie. Yet, he still shows up every other Thursday to ensure that you, our guests, are delighted with amazing food. No one is quite sure where he comes up with his dance moves, but we all know there would be no fine dining at Brookhawk without his slave labor in the scantily supplied Iron Chef kitchen.
