BIO: At age 14, Fabio began working at II Pallaio, a casual Trattoria in Firenze, Italy with stellar, Italian comfort food and a 120 seat cover. With 700-800 guests coming through the doors each night, Fabio Viviani thrived under the high pressure environment and eventually became the sous chef at age 16.
Fabio Viviani has trained in Italian and Mediterranean cuisine at IPSSAR Saffi, where he worked with Simone Mugnaini, Alessandro Panzani and Saverio Carmagini. He also managed and owned several restaurants and nightclubs in Italy, and became a young, well-respected business man in Italy.
He moved to Ventura County, California at 27 and currently works as the owner and executive chef of Café Firenze, a prominent Italian restaurant in Ventura County and Osteria Firenze, a popular Los Angeles Italian restaurant. Away from the restaurants, he is an endorser of Italian mineral water producer San Pellegrino, Bialetti Cookwear, Bertolli Olive Oil, and Santa Margarita Winery.
Fabio Viviani has two cookbooks including the Café Firenze Cookbook and and an e-book Did I Really Make Breakfast—which made it onto Amazon’s bestseller list within weeks of its release. He is best known for appearing on Bravo’s reality series Top Chef where he earned a place among the final four contestants and was named Fan Favorite. In 2010, Fabio Viviani appeared on Bravo’s Top Chef All Stars. He is available for cooking demonstrations, corporate appearances, and hosting.
