Initially from Elizabeth, NY, Tom Colicchio possesses some upscale eateries throughout America. From 2001 he is been married to his wife Lori Bush, a filmmaker, with whom he’s had three sons. Tom Colicchio has a successful career spanning over two decades and lots of merchandise formats. The star got his first huge beginning with partner Danny Meyer when they started the Gramercy Tavern in 1994. After many years of succeeding as well as a continuing net of popular eateries, Tom Colicchio became part of the first “Top Chef” judge cast. In 2010, Tom Colicchio was given an Emmy in 2010 for “Outstanding Reality Competition”, along with the 2010 Excellent Chef award in the “James Beard Foundation”, an organization focused on honoring excellent professionals in the culinary arts. Supplementing his large earnings streams, Tom Colicchio in addition has written three cookbooks. Also, he is made several star cameos and is now an executive producer for the production “A Place at the Table”. He’s revealed no strategies for retirement in the immediate future, foreshadowing a continuing accumulation of riches.
With various kinds of restaurants all over the united states, a favorite reality show position, and famous cookbooks, his varied revenue streams bring about his significant net worth. As an outcome of his job as a star chef, Tom Colicchio is worth 20 million dollars. The previous couple of years he’s made about 2 million dollars, in part thanks to his network of eateries. Given his previous success and his grounding in brick or mortar eateries, Tom Colicchio is unlikely to reduce his riches anytime soon.

Quote

I started cooking in kitchens right out of high school, and I was lucky to work with a lot of great people, but I had no idea it would turn into this. Of course no one should go into this business because they want to be the next Emeril.

It's my belief that cooking is a craft. I think that you can push it into the realm of art, but it starts with craft. It starts with an understanding of materials. It starts with an understanding of where foods are grown.
