Hi, I'm Chef Guy Vaknin owner of City Roots Hospitality, NYC's leading vegan and kosher restaurant group founded in 2012. I own and operate eight locations across Manhattan and Brooklyn and share an unmatched passion for hospitality. I have been graciously featured on tv and in print throughout the years and enjoy sharing expert cooking advice and insight on how to be successful in the restaurant industry. I was awarded best chef by the Food and Restaurant Expo this year and have been awarded best restaurant in a variety of categories for innovation, design, and sustainability. Thank you for your consideration!
