Michelle Bernstein is amazing! She is a James Beard award winning chef, a full-time restaurateur, guest judge on the popular Top-Chef TV series and a guest on HSN… just to name a few of her many accolades!
I have worked with her in the past and had the privilege of working as her food stylist this past week; we were shooting broll and product shots for the Fagor line of cookware and pressure cookers which she represents. Every time I talk with Michelle I am blown away by the amount of time she donates to charity and community functions. Last year she started working with the Dade County School district to revamp and healthy-up the school lunch program. Check out the video below to get all the details but suffice it to say she is doing a world of good.
This visit when I jokingly asked “what’s next, cooking with Michelle Obama in her White House Garden?”, Michelle replied, “actually yes, I’ll be doing exactly that in just a few weeks.”
Like I said, Michelle is amazing!
If you are in Miami, make sure to check out her restaurants Michy and Sra. Martinez for great latin-style food. You can also learn more about her on her website.
