In 2003, Guarnaschelli became the executive chef at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.butterrestaurant.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Butter Restaurant<\/strong> in New York City<\/a>, which provided the opportunity for her to develop a menu based on her own choices and point of view. Guarnaschelli created an American menu spotlighting local ingredients in dishes that allowed their flavors to shine.<\/p><p>Today Guarnaschelli is recognized as one of America\u2019s most accomplished top chefs, acclaimed for her work in the kitchen, as an author, and as a popular television personality.<\/p><p>In addition to being an Iron Chef, Guarnaschelli hosts her own primetime series Supermarket Stakeout on Food Network. She is also a regular co host on The Kitchen and a recurring judge on Chopped. In 2018, Food Network launched Alex Guarnaschelli\u2019s digital series Fix Me a Plate, in which the New York native takes audiences on an insider\u2019s tour of the city\u2019s best no-frills food spots.
