CHEF CRISTINA BOWERMAN
interview
A STROLL
AMONGST THE
CLOUDS
An interview with
Chef Cristina Bowerman by Corrado Paina
Not long ago, I had the opportunity to chat with Chef Cristina
Bowerman, a chef and woman of superior talents and qualities.
She was in Toronto as a guest chef at an ICCO event, which took
place at Terroni restaurant. That evening, five women talked
about the conditions of women in the workplace. The
conversation was run by our board member at the time,
Alberta Cefis.
Chef Cristina cooked and talked about various topics; she
was witty, funny and pragmatic.
Her cuisine is ahead of its time but realistic,
highlighting that there is no future without
the past. It embodies her set of values as an
Italian world traveler who has come home after
many years in the U.S. and all over the world.
She has stopped at Quartiere Testaccio and Trastevere in Rome where she has brought jobs, creativity and even more
beauty.
Our interview touched on several issues: Covid-19, Covid-19 and Covid-19. How can you not speak about this issue
that has impacted everyone, and in particular, the hospitality sector?
In 2021 ICCO Canada hopes to start a series of events that will focus on this theme.
