Michael Chiarello, best known for his show on Food Network and multitude of northern California restaurants, died over the weekend.
The Food Network's"Easy Entertaining With Michael Chiarello" host had been receiving treatment for an acute allergic reaction that led to anaphylactic shock when he died at Queen of the Valley Medical Center in Napa, California, his restaurant group said in a statement.
"We deeply mourn the loss of our beloved patriarch Michael. His culinary brilliance, boundless creativity, and unwavering commitment to family were at the core of his being," Gruppo Chiarello said."He brought people together through the joy of shared meals, fostering lasting memories around the table."
Chiarello opened his first restaurant at the age of 22 in Miami and developed and opened more than 10 Italian-inspired restaurants in northern California since, including Tra Vigne, Bottega and Coqueta. He was also the owner of Chiarella Family Vineyards and the author of more than eight cookbooks. In 1985, Chiarello was named Food & Wine Magazine's Chef of the Year within a year of getting into the business, and in 1995, he received the Chef of the Year Award from his alma mater, the Culinary Institute of America. Esquire magazine also named him Chef of the Year in 2013.
He also had three series on PBS, one on the Fine Living and Cooking Channel and appeared on a number of other cooking shows such as Bravo's"Top Chef" and"Top Chef Masters,""Iron Chef America,""Chopped,""Supermarket Superstar" and more. He was also a guest chef on shows like"Today" and"The View.
