What is your signature dish?

My vodka sauce is my most popular, but my mashed potatoes are legendary among family and friends and recently mastered spaghetti carbonara

Who is your culinary inspiration?

So many but I would have to say because of styles of cooking is Christian Petroni who I met several times when he owned Fortina Restaurant in Armonk NY

What would you do with the $25,000?

My ultimate goal is a small family restaurant but first I’d want a food truck so that I can bring my food to different venues and reach more people
