What is your signature dish?

Meat lasagna. Everyone asks me to bring it to parties.

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My great grandmother is my culinary inspiration. She owned a restaurant before I was born, but I remember her cooking at home and how good everything tasted.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would buy a new vehicle. I drive a minivan and I hate it!
