Top Chef Bio
This bisexual Bostonian with dry sarcasm and a hunger for success has no problem telling you exactly what she thinks. Tiffani's intensity often alienates those who work around her, but she is very loyal to those who earn her trust.
She demands perfection in the kitchen and is not afraid to kick you out if you do not meet her standards.
She feels that the culinary arts is an outlet for her passion for food and creativity, and is one of the few things in life that consistently satisfies and challenges her.
Tiffani moved to Vegas in hopes of learning from other great chefs, and worked as chef de partie under Daniel Boulud at his restaurant in the Wynn Hotel. She is headed back East where, in her opinion, the real cooking happens.
During this transition period from Vegas to the East coast, Tiffani decided to work as a food server at the fashionable Tao at The Venetian, where she is gaining the valuable experience of being on the front lines with the customers.
She hopes to soon transition the valuable experience she gained working in top Las Vegas establishments into a kitchen opportunity back East.
