  • Max Hardy Executive Chef Entrepreneur Philanthropist Detroiter
    CHEF MAX HARDY EXECUTIVE CHEF ENTREPRENEUR PHILANTHROPIST DETROITER Photo courtesy of AM media Group CHEF MAX HARDY THE BEGINNING Chef Max Hardy got his first taste of the culinary experience in Tampa, Florida, as a student in the culinary arts program at Wharton High School. It was here where he began to show his creative talents, and exceptional culinary skills learned under the ProStart curriculum in high school. Chef Max’s passion and talent for cooking allowed him to matriculate to Johnson & Wales University in Miami, where he expanded on his culinary training. While in college and determined to follow his passion for becoming a world-class chef, Max tapped into his entrepreneurial spirit and started his culinary enterprise - Chef Max Miami. His company specialized in recipes ranging from American, Kosher, French, Asian, to Caribbean cuisine. It’s no surprise Chef Max Miami became a huge success in such a short time. In 2016, lured by the growing reports of Detroit’s comeback, Chef Max left New York City and returned to his hometown Detroit. By 2017 he began work on opening his first restaurant The River Bistro – on Detroit’s westside in the Grandmont-Rosedale neighborhood. In 2018 the Detroit Free Press named River Bistro to its coveted “Top 10 Best New Restaurants” to open in Metro Detroit. Six months following his success at River Bistro, Chef Max began work on his second restaurant COOP Detroit – a fast-casual Caribbean fusion restaurant located inside Detroit Shipping Co. – a food hall constructed from 32 former shipping containers located in Detroit’s Midtown community.
