“As the former owner of an Award- Winning Gourmet Store and Cooking School from 2003 -2010, Cook’s Kitchen on the Connecticut shoreline, I hosted a multitude of visiting chefs. My guest chef instructors included international chefs, television stars, cookbook authors, as well as chefs from local restaurants. However, Silvia Bianco always stood out from the rest…”

All work and no play makes for an innovation dead-end. The best ideas are born while playing. Teams that play together, work better together. It’s about fun, attitudes and relationships.

“We had a great event with about 40 people from our Foodservice team. Silvia made it easy by bringing all the supplies to our hotel and we incorporated an Iron Chef theme. Everyone had loads of fun and learned a few things, too! Thanks, Silvia, for a successful team-building event.”

Recipe Development and Testing

Publishing my cookbook, Simply Saute – which was critically acclaimed by Publishers Weekly and received 4.5 stars in overall customer reviews on Amazon – was bootcamp for recipe writing. All of the recipes for the book were developed by me during the 10 years I owned Biscotti, a Zagat award winning restaurant in Ridgefield, CT.
In recent years I have been developing and sharing recipes through my blog, chefsilvia.com. Now I am offering my unique talent for developing simple, healthy, flavorful recipes that your customers will reach for time and time again along with your products.
