Antonia Lofaso

Chef Antonia Lofaso's culinary creations are an invitation to explore deep into her personal world. She developed a curiousity about food and cooking after moving from suburban Long Island to the diverse cultural landscape that is Los Angeles. The carnetas and the Cavatelli are, according to her, able to exist together on the exact same menu. Her taste is constantly evolving. The only thing that remains is her unique vision of the future while looking back to the previous. Scopa Italian Roots is a restaurant that was founded by Lofaso in the year 2013. It was founded by the chef as a result of her heritage as an Italian-American. Lofaso's rendition of old school Italian cuisine is one of Los Angeles's most popular restaurants. Lofaso has been described by many as a local favourite that serves up meals that are delicious, authentic and warm. Lofaso took her cues from the greats of culinary with sophisticated cooking techniques. However, she did not fear taking extraordinary chances to honor her own instincts. She was in close contact with many celebrities and rose rapidly through the ranks in Wolfgang Puck's Spago. Lofaso collaborated together with Sal Aurora to create Black Market Liquor Bar, a new bar in Studio City. Lofaso found her place at Black Market, and through the alliances she made. The partnership would allow for creativity and freedom Lofaso longed for. Black Market has no one direction in mind and that's the way it goes. The course will begin by serving dill-flavored chips on potato Shishito peppers, then continue with Korean Wings. Antonia anchors the bold range of flavours. Lofaso measured her professional success by her capacity to both understand and be genuine to her audience. Her memorable performance on Top Chef Chicago and Top Chef: All Stars highlighted her uniqueness outside of the kitchen and her talents are still shining in front of the camera, as an expert Judge on the CNBC's Restaurant Startup and recurring appearances on Food Network's Cutthroat Kitchen Man vs. Child and ABC's Real O'neals. Lofaso has teamed up together with Penguin Publishing to create The Busy Mom's Cookbook 100 Recipes for easy, Delicious, Home Cooked Meals. In this book, she also discusses her experience as a mother, and also a student of the French Culinary Institute. Lofaso insists that the source of inspiration behind all of Lofaso's accomplishments is her kitchen. Through this, she is always on the pulse. She is revolutionizing her industry's aesthetic by redesigning chef wear to be functional and stylish with her own brand Chefletics. Lofaso is committed to staying true to you and your goals. To achieve this, she's launched Antonia Lofaso Catering. The new company will offer a customized experience for customers.
