Donald Hedley Davey Oct 4, 1927 – Aug 9, 2014 - Davey started his distinguished career at the American Academy of Art in Chicago. He has served on the faculty of the Academy of Art in San Francisco and was instrumental in the formation of the Society of Illustrators for which he served as president. The Elmwood Planation began with a fire. The building on River Road dated to the mid-18th century. After a fire in the 1940s, the second story of the plantation was removed and it was rebuilt as a restaurant. The setting, surrounded by ancients oaks, was spectacular. Chef Nick Mosca made sure the food was equally memorable. Mosca helped his family start the restaurant Mosca's, a local and still-running institution. He came to the Elmwood Planation in 1962, where he created a style that married the flavors of Italy with the elegance of New Orleans' finest Creole cooking. In 1978, another fire ravaged the Elmwood Planation and finally closed the restaurant.
