Antonia Lofaso

Antonia's Lofaso invites you to look into her soul by the food she cooks. Her food evokes curiosity, which developed when she left into the Long Island suburbs and entered the rich cultural landscape that is Los Angeles. The belief that cavatelli and carnitas can co-exist seamlessly on the same menu creates an atmosphere that is constantly developing. What remains, however, with her food is a unique vision for the future while musing on the old. Scopa Italian Roots was opened in 2013 by Lofaso who was inspired by her Italian American roots. It received the warmest welcome. Lofaso has been widely praised as a master of the traditional Italian dishes. The food at Lofaso is always authentic, inviting and satiating. Lofaso learned from the best chefs in the world and learned from their cutting-edge techniques but she never hesitated to make bold decisions for her sense of self. She quickly rose through the ranks at Wolfgang Puck's Spago before moving into working closely with celebrity chefs in a number of Los Angeles kitchens. Lofaso and Sal Aurora partnered in 2011 to create Black Market Liquor Bar Studio City. Lofaso found her place with Black Market, and through the collaborations she set up. This collaboration would foster the freedom of expression Lofaso longed for. Black Market is not constrained to a specific direction, and that's the goal. It could begin with potato chips dill and toshito peppers. This is followed by lobster roll Korean wings, and then a series of meatballs. What anchors this bold array of flavors is Antonia. Lofaso's success has been measured on her ability to stay honest with herself, while understanding her audience. Alongside her unforgettable appearances of Top Chef Chicago and Top Chef: All Stars, her individuality was also praised out of the kitchen. Today she continues to make waves on the television screen as judge on CNBC judge and recurring role in Food Network's Cutthroat Kitchen Man vs. Child. Lofaso has released her book, The Busy Mother's Cookbook 100 Simple and Delicious Recipes in 2012 along with Penguin. It also told about her experiences while she studied at The French Culinary Institute. She had a daughter, Xea in addition. Lofaso believes that every one of her success is due to the enthusiasm she feels for cooking. In this vein that Lofaso is always keeping a watchful eye on developments in the field. With the Chefletics brand, she is making a difference in the design of the industry, by re-designing the attire of chefs to be elegant and efficient. The most important thing to Lofaso is adhering to your ideals. To achieve this goal, she has launched Antonia Lofaso Catering, which offers a more customized way of offering customers a the most personal service.
