Anne Burrell

Anne Burrell is well known not only for her amazing dishes, but also for her trademark spiky blond hair.

Her TV show, Secrets of a Restaurant Chef reveals easy to master technique and dishes for the at home cook. Anne Burrell also co-hosts Worst Cooks in America and leads a team of inexperienced home cooks around the country taking them through culinary boot camp.

One of the first restaurants Anne worked in was when she arrived back in New York City from her travels in Italy at Felidia Restaurant, working with Lidia Bastianich. Then, she served as a chef at Savoy where she cooked over an open wood fire, creating colorful menus, after being inspired by the Mediterranean.  Where at Savoy, she developed her culinary style—a love of rustic food made with simple and pure ingredients but with intense flavors.

Her next move was to the Institute of Culinary Education, but not to be a student. Anne Burrell took the opportunity to take a passion; teaching, and teach students her culinary knowledge. After three years of teaching, she went back to the restaurant business, serving as the executive chef at Lumi Restaurant. After Lumi, she joined the Batali-Bastianich empire by accepting a job at Italian Wine Merchants. This entailed salumi production and traveling to off-site events with Mario Batali. Mario was then asked to be one of Food Network’s Iron Chefs, and enlisted Anne as his sous chef. Through 2007-2008, Anne Burrell served as executive chef at hot spot Centro Vinoteca, where she made a menu of small plates, antipasti, pastas and main courses all presented with her trademark bold, pure, rustic flavors. She is available for cooking demonstrations, hosting and corporate appearances.

We all know her as Gwyneth the actress, Gwyneth the singer, and Gwyneth the wife of Coldplay’s Chris Martin. Now the Hollywood starlet is Gwyneth the chef with the release of her latest culinary book, It’s All Good. The book discusses a health scare that inspired her to change her entire diet. She encourages healthy eating habits, and offers recipes tailored to match her lifestyle. Her main goal is to create dishes that make you look good and feel great. Most of the 185 dishes included in the cookbook are gluten-free, sugar-free and low-carb. Additionally, she reveals ways to cut out dairy, eggs, soy, sugar, coffee, alcohol, shellfish, wheat, meat and processed food. Not an easy task!

Gwyneth has also partnered with other celebrity chefs to star in “Spain…On the Road Again,” a PBS cooking series where she works alongside Mario Batali, Mark Bittman, and Spanish actress Claudia Bassols.
