His first position as Executive Chef at East Village's Miracle Grill caught the eye of restaurateur Jerome Kretcher who asked Bobby help open Mesa Grill. A few year's later, Bobby teamed with Laurence Kretcher to open BOLO, which received two stars from the New York Times and is continually rated as "Top Spanish Restaurant" in New York by the Zagat Survey in 1994. Bobby has received national recognition for his innovative creations utilizing indigenous American Southwestern and Mediterranean ingredients.
Bold American Food, his first cookbook, received IACP's Award for Design (1995); while his second cookbook, From My Kitchen to Your Table, has won rave reviews from the New York Times. His latest books are Boy Meets Grill and Bobby Flay Cooks American. Bobby has starred in the Television Food Network's Grillin' & Chillin', Hot Off the Grill with Bobby Flay and FoodNation. Bobby is the premiere celebrity chef for CBS's Early Show.
