    • Host of "Emeril Live"

    Celebrity Chef Speaker Emeril Lagasse is one of the most popular celebrity chef personalities in the world.

    He was given his first cooking lesson from his mother, Hilda, where he grew up in Fall River, Massachusetts. Emeril worked at a Portuguese bakery as a teenager where he picked up skills in the art of bread and pastry baking.

    Originally, Emeril had a full scholarship to the New England Conservatory of Music but opted to pursue a career as a professional chef instead. He eventually graduated with an honorary Doctorate degree from the prestigious culinary school, Johnson and Wales University. Emeril then learned the art of classic French cuisine after traveling to Paris and Lyon and upon returning to the States, he used the skills learned, in the fine restaurants of New York, Boston and Philadelphia and continued down to the south to New Orleans. Attracted by New Orleans restaurant owners, Dick and Ella Brennan, Emeril established himself as the executive chef for seven years at their famous restaurant, Commander’s Palace.

    Celebrity Chef Speaker Emeril’s restaurant resume consists of twelve well renowned restaurants. In New Orleans: Emeril’s New Orleans, NOLA Restaurant and Emeril’s Delmonico. Las Vegas: Emeril’s New Orleans Fish House, Delmonico Steakhouse, Table 10 and Lagasse’s Stadium. In Orlando: Emeril’s Orlando and Emeril’s Tchoup Chop and in Miami, Emeril’s Miami Beach.

    Time after time he has won critical praise and top ratings. Emeril’s Restaurant was named Restaurant of the Year by John Mariani in Esquire magazine in 1990 and in 1991 received the highly desired Wine Spectator Grand Award. He was named Best Southeast Regional Chef also in 1991 by the James Beard Foundation, and more recently, Emeril’s Restaurant earned the Ivy Award. His NOLA restaurant has the status of Best New Restaurant given by Esquire in 1993 and has since been acknowledged by Travel & Leisure and Southern Living. His New Orleans Fish House, which is his third restaurant, was named Best Restaurant in Las Vegas by Zagat. Delmonico Steakhouse, also in Las Vegas, was titled Best Steakhouse by the Las Vegas magazine and in 2004 it was awarded the Grand Award from Wine Spectator magazine. Not forgetting Emeril, he was chosen as Chef of the Year by GQ Magazine in 1998 and in 1999 was one of People magazine’s ’25 Most Intriguing People of the Year.’ He was also named Executive of the Year by Restaurants & Institutions magazine in 2004 and the next year was crowned Distinguished Service Award from Wine Spectator for his contributions to the wine industry. In 2006, Emeril was inducted into the MenuMasters Hall of Fame and in 2007 named Restaurateur of the Year by New Orleans CityBusiness. He also received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Food Network’s South Beach Wine & Food Festival.
