“There can’t be a more good humored, easygoing, creative and exacting cooking professional than Chris Styler. His inquiring mind, enviable patience, and clear thinking come through in the recipes...”

Amy Farges, from the acknowledgments, The Mushroom Lover’s Mushroom Cookbook and Primer    


“Every day that we worked together was exhilarating with the promise of one small breakthrough or or major victory. You were patiently dedicated to bringing out the best in the food and in me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

“Working with Chris Styler was almost as much fun as working for him. I was one of his kitchen assistants while working on Lidia Bastianich’s show “Lidia’s Italian American Table” and learned so much from him that I couldn’t imagine anyone else as Culinary Producer when I got the opportunity to do my own show. Chris’s expertise and attention to detail, as well as his incredible sensibility about food made writing Daisy Cooks! Latin Flavors that will Rock Your World one of the most enjoyable projects that I have worked on. It is an honor to be able to call him colleague, mentor, and friend. “

Daisy Martinez


“Chris Styler has worked with me on the creation and production of 11 nationally distributed cooking series and their companion books over the past eight years.  He has worked as Executive Chef in the TV kitchens of Julia Child and Jacques Pepin, Lidia Bastianich, Stephan Pyles, Robert Del Grande and others whose shows we’ve produced, including the kitchens of “Cooks Illustrated”.  Chris is efficient, organized, flexible and creative in both development and execution.  He runs a terrific kitchen crew who dedicate themselves to excellence with the same passion Chris does…big surprise!  Our shows and books have been awarded in excess of 25 National Emmy, James Beard and IACP awards—Chris Styler has been an integral part of this achievement.”
