San Francisco living and delicious food go together.
We should know since we’ve lived in Nor Cal for decades.
Having said that, in terms of delicious cuisine, it can always get better and more expansive.
Often, it depends upon the cook.
You want to expand your sensitive palate? You higher culinary experience?
There is an incredible female chef who has been delighting taste buds around the world, and if you have not sampled her menu, it is absolutely time you should. You only go around once in this short life.
Would you like to meet her?
Giada De Laurentiis is an Italian American chef, entrepreneur, writer, and television personality.
She was the host of Food Network's program called Giada at Home. She also appears regularly as a contributor and guest co-host on NBC's program entitled Today.
Our talented luminary is the founder of the catering business GDL Foods.
She is a winner of the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lifestyle Host and the Gracie Award for Best Television Host. She was also recognized by the International Hospitality Institute as one of the Global 100 in Hospitality, a list featuring the 100 Most Powerful People in Global Hospitality.
On June 26, 2020, De Laurentiis' Food Network series Giada Entertains won a Daytime Emmy Award as Outstanding Culinary Series.
On July 26, 2020, De Laurentiis won the Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Culinary Host.
On February 10, 2023, Giada has signed a multi-year deal to create and produce unscripted programming with Amazon Studios.
Later in February, Giada was named as the godmother for the Oceania Cruises' ship Vista, the first new ship from the cruise line in more than a decade.
Very impressive.
Deliciously so.
Giada studied at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, with aspirations of becoming a pastry chef.
Le Cordon Bleu, which is French for "The Blue Ribbon", is an international network of hospitality and culinary schools teaching French haute cuisine.
Its educational focuses are hospitality management, culinary arts, and gastronomy. The institution consists of 35 institutes in 20 countries and has over 20,000 students of many nationalities.
Didn’t we say Giada serves deliciously, globally?
We can smell the aroma now.
After returning to the United States, she became a professional chef working in several Los Angeles restaurants, notably the Wolfgang Puck-owned Spago. She later worked as a food stylist and was contacted by the Food Network after styling a piece in Food & Wine magazine in 2002.
Hey, would you like to have lunch with her?

One more.
Here, she will take you to class. You will learn a lot and your friends and family will greatly benefit from it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrYAsE1ZOiE
That was wonderful.
When most of us want to get away, we think of traveling. Cruises have been a favorite of many for years. The azure ocean, the cloudless blue skies and the sparkling stars at night.
What would make that a perfect picture is dining on some sensational food.
That is where Giada comes in.
Oceania Cruises is partnering with her and the aroma in the air is fresh and spellbinding.
