Annette Tomei

Annette Tomei loves all things food. Since graduating from The International Culinary Center in 1994, she has run a chalet and owned a café in a Utah ski resort, was executive chef of a Napa Valley winery, and ran a private chef service catering to the wineries of the Napa Valley area. She has also co-authored Chile Aphrodisia, contributed to Fork Me, Spoon Me: The Sensual Cookbook and earned a Master’s degree in gastronomy. She greatly admires the iconic travel-food writer MFK Fisher and travels as much as she can, always searching off the beaten path for local restaurants with one-of-a-kind dishes. Chef Annette joined The International Culinary Center in 2006.
