Who am I? Well lets start with a picture of my family ... Cindy, Sophie, Nyan and Dominic ... as you can see the LORD has blessed me in a huge way with this family ... also you can tell we love to have a good time ... I will tell you more about them in the future.
Well like I have said before ... I am just some Italian boy from Tonawanda, NY. I went to Kenmore East High School and graduated in 1980 (wow ... that was a long time ago) then I went to NCCC for a technical education and then on to RIT for more Mechanical Engineering Technology education. Then I went to work in Boston, MA for a factory automation company and I spent the last 20 years of my career selling factory automation equipment. I moved from Boston to California. I got married to Cindy and we lived in CA for a few years then we moved to Charlotte, NC in 1992 and we have been hers ever since ... funny ... but I did not mention food training???
Well I am NOT a real chef ... just a wanna-be-chef. I worked in many restaurants in my earlier years ... Salvatore's Italian Garden's, Romanello's Roseland, Romanello's Prime Rib, Arthur's Restaurant and or course Alice's Kitchen. I am sure there were several others that my 44 year old brain will no longer recall. My restaurant training and my family training are what have inspired me to work so hard and be so passionate about food and cooking. I have wanted, for a long time, to do something about my food passion and now with BLOGGING and can ... so that is why I am blogging as Markthechef ...
In HIS Service,
Mark
