What is your signature dish?

I make a unique style of Chili I call “Chicago style” with Mexican and polish influences. It’s spicy, and beloved by everyone who tries it.

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My grandma, she cooked with a midwestern sensibility and a love for fine cuisine. We ate at fine restaurants in France, England and Chicago together and expectations were always high.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would invest some in my daughter’s education, and there is a local community center with an unused cafe space. I’d love to try a simple healthy community takeaway concept where my daughter plays.
