What is your signature dish?

My favorite dish would be anything of steak or pasta

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My culinary inspiration would be my Great Grandma Rita. My great grandmother used to cook for her 6 children then her grandchildren and still she had the opportunity to cook for her great grandchildren as well. I believe she is responsible for the way my family is divided for thanksgiving over the macaroni and cheese lol.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would open my own business with the money and create something my sons can grow or learn with me.
