Antonia Lofaso

Antonia's food provides a way to explore her life. She developed a curiousity about food and cooking after moving from suburbs of Long Island to the diverse culture of Los Angeles. Cavatelli and carnetas are, according to her, able to be found on the identical menu. Her sense of taste is continuously evolving. But what remains is her distinctive vision of the future while longingly recalling the previous. Scopa Italian Roots was opened in 2013 by Lofaso, who is inspired by her Italian American roots. It received a warm welcome. The restaurant's version of old-school Italian is regarded as the one of Los Angeles' most compelling Italian restaurants. Lofaso is consistently loved by the Scopa's customers for serving food that feels real and utterly satisfying. Lofaso took her cues from the greats of culinary who employed sophisticated methods. She was not afraid to take huge risks in order to respect her intuition. She was in close contact with many stars and quickly rose up the ranks at Wolfgang Puck's Spago. In the year 2011, Lofaso worked along with Sal Aurora and Mario Guddemi to open Black Market Liquor Bar in Studio City. Lofaso had found home in the Black Market. Lofaso could find the space to express her creativity that she desired through this collaboration. Black Market doesn't have one particular direction. This is the intention. The course could start with potato chips dill and shishito peppers followed by an ice cream roll Korean wings, and then a series of meatballs. Antonia is the anchor for this bold array of tastes. Through her entire career, Lofaso has measured her success with her exceptional ability to comprehend her audience but still remain authentic to her personality. The Top Chef Chicago episode and Top Chef: All Stars highlighted her capacity to be her self outside of the culinary environment. Since then she's maintained her work in front of cameras, including judge on CNBC's Restaurant Startup Judge and recurring appearances on The Food Network's Cutthroat Kitchen Man vs. Child. Lofaso joined forces in partnership with Penguin in 2012 to launch The Busy Mom's Cookbook 100 Recipes to prepare Delicious homemade Meals. The book describes the challenges she encountered while studying at an institution called the French Culinary Institute and raising her daughter Xea. Lofaso states that the reason for her achievements is derived from her kitchen. That's how she keeps a pulse on the current happenings. Through her Chefletics brand, she's altering the appearance of the industry, by creating chefwear for both style and functionality. Lofaso is committed to remaining true to your values and your goals. In order to achieve this, she has launched Antonia Lofaso Catering. The new company will offer a customized experience for customers.
