Career

Andrea Reusing opened a wine focused restaurant in Raleigh, North Carolina, named Enoteca Vin. [1] She opened her Asian cuisine based restaurant Lantern in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, in 2002. [2] At her restaurant, she seeks to source the majority of her ingredients locally. [3] In 2011, she was awarded the James Beard Foundation Award for Best Chef Southeast, the same year she had her first cookbook published entitled Cooking in the Moment: A Year of Seasonal Recipes. [2] The book featured a couple of dishes from her restaurant, but was mostly recollections of dishes from her childhood. [4]

Unlike at Lantern, at Reusing's Restaurant at the Durham in North Carolina, she serves American cuisine. [5] She had previously not sought to open a restaurant within a hotel, but the design of The Durham hotel attracted her. [6] She also founded the non-profit organisation Kitchen Patrol, which provides classes on healthy eating to children. [1]

Personal life

She is married to musician Mac McCaughan, and they have two children together. [4]
