Welcome to a culinary journey with Aristotle Cleanthes, a vivacious chef hailing from Knotts Island, NC. Nestled on the southern shores of Virginia Beach, Aristotle grew up surrounded by the bounties of the sea and land, which played a pivotal role in shaping his culinary prowess. Inspired by his late father, Theodore Cleanthes, Aristotle embraced the audacious spirit of food and life, diving headfirst into the restaurant world at the tender age of 24. For a decade, he ran a beloved seafood and steak restaurant, and today, he's the proud owner of the award-winning brunch spot, Redhead Bay Café.
But Aristotle's achievements don't stop at his restaurant's doors. He's graced the screens of Food Network, showcasing his culinary talents on shows like Guys Grocery Games and clinching a victory on Family Food Showdown in 2019. Beyond the kitchen, Aristotle is an avid outdoorsman, with passions ranging from hunting to fishing. Together with his wife Robbie (Kaitlyn) Cleanthes, he's been a Bass Pro ambassador since 2016. Their shared love for nature and food culminates in Aristotle's online series, The Campin’ Kitchen, where he whips up delectable dishes in the great outdoors.
