Chef Heriberto Yunda

Shortly after immigrating to the United States, Heri moved to New York City. While there, he worked for many Manhattan restaurants. He cooked with chefs such as Charles Palmer and eventually assisted Chef Matthew Kenny in opening Matthew's. While at Matthew's he worked as Chef de Cuisine for seven years. During this time, Heri was commissioned as chef & consultant in opening two restaurants located in Istanbul, Turkey.

In 2002 Heri along with his wife Stephanie moved to Pennsylvania. Soon after the birth of their daughter they moved to Jim Thorpe to open their new restaurant, Moya, named after Heri's home town of La Moya.

Heri's twenty-eight years of experience in the culinary arts has lead him to a keen understanding of his craft. His primary goal in opening Moya is to offer gourmet, eclectic cuisine. Heri's food has few rules and is executed in a relaxed, healthy style with an emphasis on flavor and freshness. His menu is constantly changing to accommodate local product and palate.
