She attended the Apicius Cooking School of Lorenzo de’Medici in Florence, Italy; received a James Beard Foundation scholarship; attended various New York cooking schools; and watched her grandmother very carefully.

Fresh and seasonal ingredients make the best dishes. She is not shy with herbs and spices and will go out of her way to source ingredients.

For an evening during my bachelorette weekend upstate, I reached out to Phyllis to prepare a dinner for myself and 8 friends and we were NOT disappointed! My only requests were that the ingredients were sourced locally and organic if possible. She crafted an amazingly perfect menu that included locally sourced cheeses, free-range chicken and she also somehow  found locally sourced polenta! Phyllis is also incredibly thoughtful, she provided beautiful photographs of one of the markets she visited and as a sentimental person, it meant a lot to me:) We were all extremely impressed, I will never forget that meal! Thank you so much, can't wait to do it again!
