Throughout my career, I have had the pleasure of owning and operating a dozen or so restaurants since the 80s. Most of them specialized in historically connected dining. I believe that the history of food and past cultures are fundamental in the re-interpretation of today's cooking.

Below a list of some of the offerings which include accurate research & execution of the Cuisine of the Roman Empire, The Cuisine of the Middle Ages, The Cuisine of the Pre-Columbus Era, The Cuisine of the Renaissance, Jewish-Italian Sephardim Cookery, Cucina Abruzzese, Diabetes Cookery, Celiac Cookery, the cooking of the Savoy Dynasty and the Mediterranean Diet 21 Lifestyle Programs for Health & Wellness in the Corporate World, and Healthcare Centers.

All I can tell you is that it kept me very occupied, but the knowledge accumulated is priceless. Today, we no longer operate restaurants but offer classes on the above topics in our cooking school, and present them to national and international trade arenas hoping to excite others, just like I have been for so very long.
