Chef Tyler Stone is one of America’s rising stars in the next generation of chefs.  From the time he was 4 years old, Tyler has had a full-blown passion for the culinary arts and has already accomplished much in his short career.  He graduated a local culinary academy at the age of thirteen and a half with a student degree in restaurant management and culinary arts.  He has also enjoyed numerous T.V. appearances on local television and radio and has prepared fabulous dinner parties for local and national celebrities, organizations, and politicians.

Tyler published his first cookbook at the age of Eighteen, The Kid’s Cooking, which shares his love of food.  His book can be viewed and purchased on his website.  He would also like to host his own syndicated T.V. cooking show in the near future.

Tyler has cooked for many notable individuals and celebrities such as Joe and Gavin Maloof of the Sacramento Kings and Palms Casino Resort, John Tesh, and The Doobie Brothers.  He also had the opportunity to prepare a special dinner for Vice President and Mrs. Cheney at the Naval Observatory in Washington D.C.  He has worked with the former executive chef of the White House, Walter Scheib, and the Culinary Olympic Team California. His expertise allows him to prepare a variety of dishes from appetizers to desserts, though he really enjoys multi-course meals best because of the attention to detail and his ability to be extremely creative.

Tyler's inspiration comes from great chefs as well from his family, friends, and his local surroundings.  Asked why he enjoys cooking, Tyler compares it to creating a multi-course meal, “Even though each course is unique, added together, the whole meal provides a feeling of wholeness, satisfaction, and fulfillment."
