Madeline Pizzo

866-999-1327 ext 7

Madeline was raised in a family of food-lovers who combined food and celebration as a natural extension of one another. During her culinary career, she celebrates the opportunity to be involved with food and cooking and has enjoyed various experiences, continuing to learn each time she cooks. As a student of macrobiotics, she aims to base meals upon local, sustainably-grown, and seasonal ingredients. She is passionate about making good, healthy food that is accessible for everyone, and she hopes to empower others to be inspired in their own gardens and kitchens. Madeline has worked as a chef and baker at Casa de Luz, a macrobiotic restaurant in Austin, Texas. She also spent time as a lead chef at a yoga center in Greece, and a bakery manager at the Blossoming Lotus in Hawaii. Her interest in travel and international cuisine has allowed her to adapt traditional regional dishes to suit vegetarian and vegan diets. This past year she worked as a tour caterer with Dega Catering and then traveled to Istanbul, Turkey to teach natural foods cooking techniques at a private estate. This summer she was the lead baker at the Kashi Institutes Macrobiotic Summer Conference, before returning to Austin to continue working as a personal chef, caterer and teacher.
