All culinary entrepreneurs, this week’s staff picks blend creative genius with thoughtful experimentation and the result is mouthwatering. These food masters advance their fields, bringing quality to the forefront and finding ways to innovate each day.

We begin this post with Bryan Meehan, Executive Chairman at Blue Bottle Coffee, and advocate of socially responsible investing. Bryan grew up in Dublin and carried his love of food along with him to London, Boston and San Francisco. Bryan loves hiking and, naturally, enjoys a great cup of organic coffee.
