Welcome!
I’m Anthony, and welcome to my food blog, The Flavor Dance.
The Flavor Dance is an archive of recipes, ideas, and all things food and cooking. Take a look around!
About me: I have worked as a professional chef for over 12 years. I currently live in Los Angeles and work full time as a private chef for a software company. My daily work involves creating and preparing healthy seasonal meals that look and taste delicious. It’s a great gig that allows me to focus on food and nutrition.
Before I worked as a private chef, I worked as sous chef in French restaurants in Los Angeles. Most recently, I was sous chef at Le Petit Paris in downtown LA. Before that I served as sous chef at Belle Vie, a French bistro in Brentwood. I have also worked in Italian and New American restaurants as well as worked as a bread baker.
Though I have always loved food and cooking, it wasn’t my first career. My first path was in science and researching the human brain. I received my Ph.D. in perceptual neuroscience from the University of Chicago and researched the human visual system for over a decade. I realized that I was happier in the kitchen working with my hands and creating dishes that make people happy and healthy.
When I’m not doing something related to food, I enjoy exercising, playing guitar, watching MST3K and mma, and reading about science, health, and philosophy.
Happy Cooking!
