ABOUT ME

I am a Chef! Hitting a peak at current restaurant, seeking to learn and grow for the ultimate goal in opening my own restaurant. I am currently branding myself into a culinary Chef niche. Though it has been done before I feel I stand out from the rest. I will not only be experiencing cuisine all over the world in restaurants and family homes, I will be working in them to grow and learn, honing in on the style I would like to create. I will be traveling the globe, including all continents; Traveling, Blogging, Cooking, Critiquing and Woking in what the world has to offer at its source! My name is John Wayne Formica "The Duke" and I am the Traveling Cowboy Chef; Worldly Travels, Food, Drink, Culture and Life! Check out my website...www.Travelingcowboychef.com
