Ria Pell

Owner and Chef (deceased)

Chef Ria Pell died in November 2013. She was the owner of the Memorial Drive diner Ria’s Bluebird, co-founder of the MondoHomo queer music & arts fest., DJ, and 2012 winner on Food Network’s reality cooking series “Chopped”.

Pell was a pillar for Atlanta’s food and punk music scenes, and gay rights activism, who after three years had recently closed down her Inman Park restaurant Sauced to focus her attention on Ria’s Bluebird.
