Piccolo Chef was founded by two super-busy moms with full-time jobs. The inspiration behind it: their children. Tina Fanelli Moraccini and Lilian Palmieri are mom-preneurs with a vision to make healthy cooking attainable and fun to children of all ages and walks of life.
Tina and Lilian opened Piccolo Chef to teach children and their parents the art of healthy cooking and reconnecting with one another through all phases of the cooking process from the garden to the table. They deliver all of this with compelling recipes, highly nutritional ingredients, a kitchen with real tools and a nurturing team-based approach which respects the intelligence and abilities of children in different age groups.
The Piccolo Chef Cookbook is no ordinary recipe collection. It is the fruit of four years of award-winning cooking classes, workshops and camps at Piccolo Chef, the leading cooking school for children and teens in Los Angeles.
