The wait is finally over! After much pleading & general bribery, Executive Chef Scott Ostrander finally convinced Cameron Behny to join the ‘town team. Hailing from California, Behny started in the industry under Chef Ostrander in Savannah, GA at Savannah Bistro. She quickly worked her way up the ranks like a swift ninja, stepping on the throats of other line cooks who stood in between her and her goals. She seamlessly transitioned from prep to garde manger to the highly coveted station of the grill. When not flipping Hanger Steaks with swiftness and agility, she can be found walking the streets of Avondale with her puppy Sophie.
We are certainly thrilled and honored to have Sous Chef Cameron Behny join the team.

Today’s farm-to-table cuisine begins with local oysters served with charred tomato & horseradish, and of course, a salad of butter lettuce topped with a champagne vinaigrette. But, save plenty of room for entrees and dessert. Under the sage direction of Chef Scott Ostrander, the majority of our outstanding dishes are prepared using the freshest local ingredients that were grown, caught or raised in North Florida or South Georgia.
Scott’s signature dishes like roasted trigger fish or brick grilled chicken are complemented by Meghan’s outstanding selection of fine wines. After a mango sorbet for dessert, you can pop in next door at Emily Benham, a high-end shop featuring the latest in ladies shoes, handbags and accessories from designers like Jimmy Choo, Alberto Fermani and Michael Kors. ‘town at 3611 St. Johns Avenue is a unique experience.
