In addition to being a Marketing Director with 5+ years of experience working with global brands and clients, Gabriella is the host of The Sip television show which airs on ILTV. She also recently had her writing debut with the release of “The Swimming Pugs” which highlights the fun and colorful adventures of pug-duo – Pugsley and Penelope – as they explore the islands of The Bahamas.

The book, which will have its official launch on July 23 at the National Art Gallery, is currently available at all major online bookstores and select stores around The Bahamas.

The Showman Chef Series Showcases Dinner Specials By Weekly Guest Chefs

Amazing food knows no limits. While professionally trained chefs can craft culinary masterpieces that weave unique flavours, textures and diverse ingredients into edible works of art, there are many who are gifted with a natural passion and love for food.

Several months ago, The Showman Restaurant launched their Chef Series, and invited professional chefs and home cooks to showcase their love of amazing food and recipes on the Showman menu, for one night only.  To date, there have been several familiar faces on the Chef Series line-up. And, we decided to ask them all the same three questions to learn a bit more about who they are and what motivates them.

Q: What excites you most about cooking?

A: Cooking for me is always something fun to do. I love trying out new recipes and infusions. I will admit however, they always don’t turn out exactly as planned! 

Q: What is one tip that you would share with other home cooks?

A: Taste as you go & mind your hand with the salt! I don’t know what’s worse, something too salty or something too bland.

Q: What is one ingredient that you think every kitchen should have?

A: Truffle shavings. For those days when you need something a little fancy, I get a jar locally and just indulge.

As for more pugs, they love fresh fish! When we have a big catch, I prepare a little bowl of sashimi for them and they just love it! 

More featured chefs will be announced soon, so be on the lookout on the Showman pages for who will be sharing their flavour packed dishes, next.
