I just wanted to thank you for a wonderful evening last night. The food was delicious and of course not having to cook or clean was a real bonus. After you left we went to the kitchen to tidy-up, but there was nothing left to do! Thank you once again.

- Joanna and Daryll O'Keefe

Chef Karen's participation in our event was flawless.

I just wanted to pass along a note thanking you for your efforts in yesterday's lunch for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary.  Everyone was very pleased with food.  All of the dishes were highly regarded. In fact, the entire experience was wonderful and added so much to the day. Be sure that we shall keep you in mind for future occasions and will, of course, be highly recommending your services to friends and colleagues.

Featured Chef - Patricia Muzzi

Interview with Mood Food Culinary Studio's Chef Muzzi

Who is your service geared towards - busy professional, special diets, families, entertaining...?

Mood Food Culinary Studio’s mission is to bring awareness to the vital connection between food and the brain and how it impacts overall health and wellbeing. At every stage of our lives, what we eat plays an important role, whether it be in the development of a young mind, coping with stress, maintaining energy levels and concentration or to prevent accelerated aging in addition to helping reduce the symptoms of severe and non-severe mental illness. I have pretty much worked with individuals from all of these categories.

You conduct a lot of cooking classes - is there a cuisine or a dish that you love to teach?
 
Foods that improve mood and mental wellness are my true passion. The class gets a little science lesson followed by a cooking session. The topic always sparks a lot of good discussion and many questions. I love answering questions! That said, mood foods are found in many international cuisines and most typically Mediterranean fare. So that’s my most favourite cuisine and being a second generation Italian, it’s my natural specialty.
 
For private cooking classes - do you research new foods, or do you prefer to teach clients your Signature Dishes?
 
I am always learning and sharing what I have discovered, so private classes are always customized to my client’s preference. We go through a little discovery session by phone or in person so that I can learn a little more about their likes and dislikes, their relationship with food and what they hope to learn from the class. Then I go off and do my research!  
 
What is your background - did you go to culinary school, are you self- taught, did you work in restaurants?
 
I excelled in science since elementary school and was always studying or writing about the brain. While working at a restaurant part time for 5 years, I successfully graduated from a Chemical Technology program at Humber College. I worked in a testing laboratory for about 7 years and lab work is very much like food prep – careful measuring and quality control! I took on a business development role shortly after and have over 13 years of experience. I think that’s why I feel so comfortable presenting in front of a group. It was about 5 years ago when I really took cooking seriously and completed my culinary program via night school at Liaison College. Shortly after, I completed the Personal Chef program through the Culinary Business Academy. Through my classes, I now get to fuse chemistry with cooking  - my two most favourite topics!
 
Why do you enjoy teaching the art of cooking?
 
It feels so natural, effortless and very rewarding. It’s also so much fun that I forget it’s work!
 
The focus of your business is on healthy foods - why is this so important to you?
 
Being healthy allows a person to experience life to the fullest and I can’t imagine anyone who wouldn’t want that.
 
What do you try to have your clients take home from their experience?
 
Like my motto….food is bliss! It nourishes, it mends, it soothes, it is such an important part of who we are as human beings. We should respect and be grateful for our planet Earth and the food it provides and take the time to mindfully choose and prepare food in order to benefit from it in the healthiest way possible.    
 
What has inspired you to want to share your knowledge in the kitchen with the world?  
 
We have reached an era where more and more people are questioning their quality of life and really focusing on preventative health measures.  Years ago, I became very mindful of what I was eating and as a result significantly improved both my physical and mental wellbeing.  I believe that by sharing my personal experience and what I have learned since that time, can only benefit others, That’s what I’m meant to do.
