Chef Yanni combines her education with her natural culinary talents to create a unique global view on the world of flavor. Her travels through Europe expanded her abilities and opened her eyes to new possibilities. Working at the Paris Ritz Carlton, Mayan Palace, and the Art Institute of Chicago helped her develop epicurean finesse, but Chef Yanni is just as comfortable preparing humble homemade fare as she is with hosting global feasts.
