Since I interviewed Executive Chef Angela Guiffrida’s, her name has changed but not her looks.

Chef Angela Guiffrida

Instead of re-entering all the details of this recipe, I’ve scanned the recipe for the Tomato Vidalia Gratin Pie that was featured in my Dishing with Carolina Chef’s TV show and column for Time-Warner Cable.

This is such a delicious brunch or lunch dish, I wanted to share it.

Deepark Restaurant on Biltmore Estate is known for its wonderful seasonal luncheon buffet and private dinner functions. Virginia bor Executive Chef Angela is the one who brings everything together.

An Asian study major in college, Angela had no idea she would pursue cooking.  She said, ” I cooked for 10 years before I really went to culinary school. I received my degree in Culinaary Arts from Johnson & Wales University when it was located in Charleston, SC.”

When this was originally featured, it had hits and comments from around the world. I wish I had a copy  of the videos to post with this. Unfortunately, they were not changed over as the internet went to new formatting.
