About Ryan

“I’m everybody’s chef.  I make food that you can cook too.”

Ryan dreamed of becoming a chef since he was a little boy asking for a wok for his 12^th birthday so that he could be like his Food Network idol, Martin Yan.  He held on to his passion and later graduated from the California Culinary Academy. Ryan’s career saw a major boost after being on Top Chef in 2007. Ryan has cooked in the kitchens of many of the country’s best chefs, including Gary Danko.

Aside from the boring list of accolades, you’re sure to find Ryan enjoying life with his young daughter, Olive, and wife Leslie at their California Bay Area home where he enjoys gardening, walking his pups, baking scrumptious creations, working out and trying to figure out whose skinny jeans (his or Leslie’s) are in the laundry pile.

Ryan is an Emmy award winner for his work hosting his now syndicated TV show, “Food Rush” and has been on HSN, and Top Chef.  Ryan hosted the highly rated national radio show, The Ryan Scott Show on KGO 810 in the San Francisco Bay area for 8 and a half years.  All of the shows can be found on IHeartRadio. He has made over 200 appearances on the Today Show, 40 appearances on The Rachel Ray Show and over 12 appearances on Bar Rescue.
