Fiore Tedesco III is a Chef, restaurateur and writer. Fiore’s fascination with food began rolling meatballs with his grandmother in her kitchen at age three. The time spent in his family’s kitchens provide as much inspiration and backdrop to his career as anything else. His path to becoming a chef has been anything but linear. After spending a decade traveling the world playing drums in punk bands, Fiore returned home intent on making food & hospitality the mediums of his professional life. He did this under the tutelage of Michael Anthony at Gramercy Tavern, Carlo Mirachi at Roberta’s and with Aaron Franklin at Franklin BBQ. Fiore is the executive chef and co-owner of L’Oca d’Oro and Bambino.
