What is your signature dish?

My signature dish is a shrimp scampi a la Diabla and then the next one is a wonderful chicken Parmesan along with some delicious authentic lasagna!

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My culinary inspiration to be honest was my mom! I would hang out in the kitchen helping my mom while learning how to cook!

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I won the 25,000 that would honestly get me down the direction I need to be in to purchase my food truck and have a successful business!
