The VIPP Report: Here’s To A “New” Year With A “New” Menu at Superchefs

Posted on by

Darnell Superchef Ferguson

SUPERCHEFS WILL CATER TO CUSTOMERS WHO WANT TO SPLURGE OR BE HEALTH CONSCIOUS WITH A REDESIGN OF CURRENT DISHES AND A CREATION OF A NEW MENU FOR THOSE WHO DESIRE A HEALTHIER CHOICE

(Louisville, KY) Superchefs, one of the fastest growing restaurants and fan base with locations in Louisville and Alabama have a clear vision on 2020 when it comes to giving their customers options when it comes to their menu. Starting, January 3rd, we will introduce a new menu.  The older recipes will get a face lift and then for our vegan customers they will be some great dishes for you to try.

Darnell “Superchef” Ferguson says “I’m so excited to announce this new menu.  I’ve always wanted to cater to the whole community instead of just a section.  This is a complete menu.  My team and I went back to the drawing board and updated our famous dishes and then we create dishes that our vegan patrons are going to love.  Instead of making it an option, it will be a part of our comprehensive menu.  I invite you to come in and try it.”

With the new menu, you will see the growth of the celebrity chef but the execution and presentation.  His range and his knowledge of food science has grown since he created his first menu seven years ago. You will see the quality of food and service will reflect his current skill set.

We are also looking for the “superhero” in you.  We are giving away a “golden ticket”.  Youth (up to the age of 17 years old) excelling in school, and the community will be rewarded with a ticket that gives them access to eat at Superchefs for life (or as long as the restaurant is in business).  If you know someone who is deserving send it to assistant.superchef@gmail.com.

Make sure you follow Superchef for big announcements in 2020.  We have some exciting news to share with you in the coming days.

If you would like to setup an interview and/or check for availability for engagements, contact VIPP Communications at info@vippcommunications.com. Darnell “Superchef” can do an in-studio tasting and/or cooking segment if you would like to schedule.

The VIPP Report: Louisville restaurant named top 12 breakfasts in the country

Posted on by

teamsuperchefs and roger mooking

The Cooking Channel’s Man’s Greatest Food will tackle who has the greatest breakfasts in the country.  Of course, a Louisville restaurant is on that list especially when you reference anything that mentions the “GREATEST”.  Can you guess who’s on that list?  Host Roger Mooking chose “Superchefs” owned by Darnell “Superchef” Ferguson located at 1702 Bardstown Road right in the heart of the Highlands.

Mooking visited chefs all across the U.S. and went into their kitchens to learn about their top dishes and some of the secrets behind it.  The show did visit Superchefs and they ranked the restaurant on their 12 greatest breakfasts list.  Mooking was looking for the best combinations of eggs, gravy, breakfast meat and fried dough.  You could put a check mark next to each one of those criteria when it comes to Superchefs Louisville.

Ferguson says “What a way to start the year by being placed in this prestigious ranking for breakfast.  I won the Thanksgiving challenge in November of last year.  It just gives me the confidence that the restaurant caters to any taste bud you may have.  Stop by and tryout some of the fantastic items we have on the menu.  This is really shaping up to be a great year for myself and Team Superchefs”.

Man’s Greatest Food will air on the Cooking Channel, Tuesday, January 15th at 7:00 pm (EST).

If you would like to setup an interview and/or check for availability for engagements, contact Sherlene Shanklin with VIPP Communications at sshanklin@vippcommunications.com

“KNOWING IS HALF THE FIGHT…COOKING IS THE OTHER.”


(Louisville, KY) Have you even seen the Louisville entrepreneur and owner of one of the most notable restaurants in Louisville do anything on a small scale?  Your answer is likely “no” because he does everything in a big way or should we say “supersized”?  Darnell “Super Chef” Ferguson releases his new book entitled “Knowing is half the fight…Cooking is the other”.  It’s the brainchild of Super Chef when he was in culinary school.  Fast-forward several years later with a successful business and frequent appearances on several national cooking shows this was the perfect time to finish the project.

Ferguson says “When you read my book, it will give you healthy cooking tips, smart serving sizes to assist with portion control and mental food tips.  When customers come into my restaurant they always stop me and ask general questions about food, preparation and dieting so I put many of the answers in the book.  Knowing is half the fight. I hope when you read it that you will have several “I didn’t know that moments.”

You can pick up an autographed copy of the book at Super Chefs located at 1702 Bardstown Road.  You can also purchase your books online at http://eatsuperchefs.com/ and/or www.iamsuperchef.com.
