Antonia Lofaso

The culinary offerings of Chef Antonia invites customers to dive into the deep. Curiosity grew in her after she left for the Long Island suburbs to explore the vast cultural diversity in Los Angeles. The carnetas and the Cavatelli are, according to her, able to coexist on the identical menu. Her taste is constantly developing. But what remains is her distinctive view of the future, while longingly recalling the old. Scopa Italian Roots was opened in 2013 by Lofaso, who is inspired by her Italian American tradition. It received the warmest welcome. The interpretation that Lofaso has given to old-school Italian is hailed by critics as being one of the most compelling restaurants for Italian cooking within Los Angeles. Lofaso has been described by many as a local restaurant that consistently serves dishes that are authentic, tasty and inviting. Lofaso worked under culinary greats to learn their refined methods. However, she was not afraid to make extraordinary decisions in order to follow her intuition. She soon rose to the ranks of Wolfgang Puck's Spago after which she went further to collaborate with famous chefs in a variety of Los Angeles kitchens. Lofaso worked together with Sal Aurora to create Black Market Liquor Bar, an upscale bar located within Studio City. Lofaso was able to settle in the Black Market. Lofaso would find the freedom to express her creativity that she desired through this collaboration. Black Market does not have any one specific direction, that's the intention. The course could start with potato chips dill and shishito peppers followed by the lobster roll Korean wings and a succession of meatballs. What binds this diverse assortment of flavours is Antonia. Lofaso in her entire professional career, has evaluated her performance by the degree to which she understands her audience. In addition, she remains authentic to her personality. Apart from her memorable performances in Top Chef Chicago and Top Chef: All Stars, her individuality was also recognized outside of the kitchen. In the present, she is still awe-inspiring on the screen in her role as judge on CNBC judge as well as a regular role on The Food Network's Cutthroat Kitchen Man vs. Child. Lofaso has teamed up in partnership with Penguin Publishing to produce The Busy Mother's Cookbook 100 Recipes for quick, Delicious, Home Cooked Meals. In the book, she shares her experiences as a mom and student at The French Culinary Institute. Lofaso believes that all of her success is due to her passion cooking, and she's able to keep a finger in the middle of the industry through her work in the kitchen. She is revolutionizing her industry's aesthetic by redesigning chef wear for style and functionality, through her brand Chefletics. What matters to Lofaso is adhering to your vision with this goal, she has launched Antonia Lofaso Catering, which is a more personalised way of offering customers a an experience that is uniquely personal.
