On August 17, 2024, Raleigh chef Eric Rivera was arrested on charges related to domestic violence, leading to a bond release three days later.
Eric Rivera, known for his controversial social media presence, previously gained acclaim for his Seattle restaurant, Addo, before moving to Raleigh in 2023.
Despite plans for multiple dining experiences, including his latest venture Palma, Rivera's controversial past and legal issues cast a shadow over his culinary ambitions.
Rivera's confrontational online behavior, particularly an incident involving accusations of "colonization" against an Australian chef, illustrates his turbulent relationship with the culinary community.
