About The Chef:
Chef Franklin Becker has spent more than three decades shaping the flavor of New York City. Becker has earned a reputation as a chef who leads with both skill and heart. Using his classical training, Becker blends creativity, precision, and has a deep respect for ingredients.
What has always set Becker apart is his belief that food is personal. A dish, in his hands, isn’t simply composed — it’s considered, layered with intention, and built to evoke emotion. At Point Seven, Becker’s vision comes into full focus. The restaurant reflects his lifelong connection to coastal flavors and the global traditions shaped by the sea. He creates food that feels both transportive and deeply grounding where the dishes celebrate the ocean’s richness while honoring the cultures that rely on its bounty.
Beyond his kitchen accomplishments, Becker is a passionate advocate for the autism community. His commitment is deeply personal as the father of a young adult on the autism spectrum, and this motivated him to establish the Autism Speaks Celebrity Chef Gala in 2007, an event he continues to champion as Culinary Chair. This annual gala brings together celebrated chefs and restaurateurs to support Autism Speaks’ mission of research, advocacy, and services for individuals with autism and their families.
In all he does, whether crafting coastal sauces or leading philanthropic initiatives, Franklin Becker uses his platform to elevate both his craft and his community.
