Chef Michael Ballon opened
the Castle Street Cafe in 1989, after 10 years cooking in New York City.
Located in downtown Great Barrington next to the historic Mahaiwe Movie
Theater, the cafe has received rave reviews from almost the day it opened.
Prior to moving to Great Barrington, Ballon cooked in New York, as Executive
Chef at Lavin's Restaurant, Sofi, and Plum's, a full service catering company.

best." |
