Chef Deanna
Chef Deanna has been on the cutting edge of the sustainable food industry for over fifteen years. This journey has led her to a tiny bucolic farming town of Bovina NY. It is here she is surrounded by farmers and local food makers.
Chef Deanna lovingly creates beautiful dishes using her Sicilian heritage and her love of everything sweet and savory. Her combination of rustic elegance while cooking in all cast iron and serving on vintage china is not to be missed.
“ We have neglected the truth that a good farmer is a craftsman of the highest order, a kind of artist”
“This visionary chef’s catering is magical. Eight months later, our party guests are still talking about the gorgeous presentations with antique serving pieces, the high quality of local ingredients, and more than that, the exquisite flavors. How wonderful to have her prepare her distinctive rice balls with local goat cheese right in my kitchen! (No pre-cooking for this chef.) With a generous and friendly demeanor, Deanna shines on and on, hugging guests in the midst of running a tight ship with a helpful staff that works harmoniously and with great aplomb.”
