📰✨ EXTRA! EXTRA! MY NOVEMBER FEATURE IS HERE! ❤️🇮🇹
For years, I’ve loved sharing my recipes and Italian-American family traditions with readers of The Rhode Island Wave. Having my own monthly column, “Out and About with Celebrity Chef Alexia,” is truly an honor! ❤️
From becoming a Top 10 finalist on Food Network’s 100 Cooks to The Rhode Show, celebrity interviews, culinary events, my cookbook Bring Back Sunday Dinner, and my new broadcast cooking show — what a journey!
🌟 This month’s adventures:
🔥 Cooking with Tommy the Butcher of Wise Guys BBQ and sharing the kitchen with Will Gilbert on The Rhode Show!
🎙️ Back in Brooklyn with my Mid-Life Mafia girls Kristy, Marietta & Elle and guest Antoinette Gangi of Antoinette’s Italian Kitchen!
🇮🇹 Celebrating the Feast of St. Gerard at St. Lucy’s Church with host Momma Jackie Vitiello and friends Mid-Life Mafia, Dr. Jennifer DiLandro (Cats & Pudding / Dolce Aesthetics NY), Kelly (La Dolce Vita Kelly Style), Andrea Pizzo (The Cannoli Queen), Renee Cardaci (Cooking with Renee), Colomba (Festa in Cucina), Vita Clemente (Clemente Bakery) & Candice Guardino!
🥖 Visiting Charlie Rao at Brooklyn’s Pasta Fresca!
🎤 Red carpet fun at Sugar Factory at Foxwoods with my cohost Blonde Me Becky (Becky Hutton) of Behind the Mic with Blonde Me Becky, Nick Cannon & Abby De La Rosa, plus the Mike Tyson Invitational!
🍞 And of course, this issue includes my World’s Easiest No-Knead Artisan Bread recipe — simple, rustic, and made with LOVE!
A heartfelt THANK YOU to The Rhode Island Wave for the opportunity to celebrate food, family, heritage, and the incredible people I meet along the way.
📖 Find me on pages 30 & 31 of the November issue!
