I love making chicken Parmesan, that’s one of my favourite meals to make for my family. I also really love making homemade spaghetti and trying different meat sauces
Who is your culinary inspiration?My late grandfather, he was a chef for the Canadian army and I got my love of food from him. I didn’t get to learn much from him but I get to keep the passion alive and get to show my kids
What would you do with the $25,000?I would invest in my future and my career. With the being a down payment for a house or getting knives. I would also split it with my parents as they are the most important in my life
