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 Stone has had a full-blown passion for the culinary arts.  The El Camino High School graduate of Sacramento, California 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 enjoyed numerous T.V. appearances on local television and has prepared fabulous dinner parties for local and national celebrities, organizations, and politicians.

Tyler published his first cookbook, The Kid’s Cooking, which shares his love of food.  His book can be viewed and purchased on his website.  He is also currently in development for his own TV show.

Tyler has had the opportunity to cook for many notable individuals including Vice President and Mrs. Cheney at the Naval Observatory in Washington D.C.  He has also worked with the former executive chef of the White House, Walter Scheib, and the Culinary Olympic Team California.  In the meantime, he can be seen cooking on local news programs in Sacramento, California.  Tyler's expertise allows him to prepare a variety of dishes from appetizers to desserts, though he really enjoys multi-course meals because of the attention to detail and his ability to be extremely creative.

Tyler's inspiration comes from great chefs such as Emeril, Rocco, Yan, Trotter, and Keller, but also from his family, friends, and his local surroundings.  "He is constantly surprising us with his flair for creating something new, "says Sharon Stone, Tyler's mom.  Asked why he enjoys cooking, Tyler compares it to creating a multi-course meal, “Even though each layer is unique, added together, the whole meal provides a feeling of wholeness, satisfaction, and fulfillment."
