i. Biography
Freddy Money is Culinary Director at Atlas in Atlanta, a role that sits on top of a path built through disciplined service, steady movement, and technical refinement. The line from Harrodian to El Bulli Catering, The Dorchester, and Hub Culture reads less like a leap than a measured climb through kitchens where pace, standards, and control matter. By the time he reached Atlas in 2020, the work had already formed a clear pattern: repetition sharpened by responsibility.
The Path
Training at Harrodian came first, then the kitchen floor. At El Bulli Catering (2008–2010), Freddy Money worked as Chef de Partie, a position that depends on timing, accuracy, and the ability to hold one section to a standard without losing the wider rhythm of service. At The Dorchester (2011–2015), he continued as chef, adding the pressure and cadence of a house with its own expectations. In 2015, he moved into the Executive Chef role at Hub Culture, where the remit expanded beyond execution to direction. By 2020, that progression had brought him to Atlas in Atlanta as Culinary Director. The title fits a career that has moved from section work to oversight, with judgment accumulated across different rooms and formats. It is a path defined by applied experience rather than noise.
The Work Today
Since 2020, Freddy Money has served as Culinary Director at Atlas in Atlanta, where the work depends on taste, precision, and the ability to keep a kitchen moving without flattening it. He describes the craft in plain terms: "Deep respect for gastronomy and education. It's an art form and a form of expression from the chef. It's a ritual and a moment to celebrate." Taken literally, that places cooking in the space between technique and service, where a dish is both made and delivered. He also points to innovation as a necessary part of the job, saying, "Education and innovation. The innovation piece keeps us all going." In a trade that can settle into habit quickly, the point is clear: learning has to stay active if the work is going to keep moving.
Signature
The Fred's Fav pizza is Freddy Money's named signature. The value of a signature dish is not only in novelty; it is in whether it carries a chef's hand in a form that reads quickly and lands cleanly. In this case, the name itself does some of the work: direct, personal, and easy to remember.
In Their Words “Deep respect for gastronomy and education. It's an art form and a form of expression from the chef. It's a ritual and a moment to celebrate.” “There's no great chef without a great team and I am incredibly proud of this team.”
Acclaim
That second line frames the kitchen as a collective discipline rather than a solo act. For Freddy Money, the standard is shared, and the pride sits with the team as much as the food.
