Michael Proietti, executive chef at the Radisson Hotel in New Rochelle will make his reality TV debut on Food Network’s Next Food Network Star series on June 7th at 9 PM.
Proietti worked his way up from washing dishes and prepping food to become executive chef after graduating from the New York Restaurant School.
Food specialty: “Global with a love for Asian and Latin cusines – making food fabulous!” says Michael Proietti.
Favorite restaurant: “At the moment, it’s this little truck on Jerome Avenue in the Bronx. They have the best yuca pasteles and chichorones,” says Michael Proietti.
If the show goes well for the 28-year old Bronx native you can expect long waits for a table at the City Chow House, the hotel’s American Bistro with an Italian Flair.
