Creating Flavorful Recipes on A Budget with Chef to the Stars Ryan Rondeno, Ep. 201

What do celebrities Will Smith, Diddy, Common, Mike Tyson, Kevin Durant and Tyrese Gibson all have in common? They are all clients of my next guest, Chef Ryan Rondeno, the “Private Chef to the Stars”.

Chef Ryan is making his lavish recipes available to people across the U.S. as he offers some trade secrets, training through simple techniques, tips, and tricks, and revealing signature recipes for all ages. With a passion for French, Italian, and Regional American Cuisine, his focus remains on local, sustainable cuisine with a strong emphasis on bold flavors—not to mention the love of New Orleans cuisine and fresh California flavors.

Most notably, Chef Ryan has also appeared on the following segments and placed in food competition for the following: World Food Championships (top 10 finish), The Jam TV Show, Atl & Co, Good Day Charlotte, Good Day San Diego, NY food & Wine Fest, Culinary Fight Club- LA, San Diego, Chicago (won 3 times and finished 3rd in national championship).

Chef Rondeno is the founder and owner of Rondeno Culinary Designs and the Rondeno Spice Collection (Nola Creole Rub, Citrus Herb Rub, and Ancho-Chili BBQ Rub) designed to help cooks of all skill levels enhance the flavor of the dishes. His culinary focus is on the use of grass-fed organic meats and locally-grown organic produce.

Chef Rondeno recently created the Food Culture App, which offers simple recipes that will bring unique and tasty experiences to the kitchen table.  The Food Culture App was created to embody a personal and unique approach of food and flavor in the kitchen. “We wanted to create cost-effective and flavorful scratch recipes that didn't break the bank. The App was also designed to have a one-on-one feel, as if I'm cooking with you every step of the way,” says Chef Rondeno.
