Celebrity chef and Food Network host, Michael Chiarello, has tragically passed away at the age of 61. He suffered from an acute allergic reaction that led to anaphylactic shock, according to his company Gruppo Chiarello.
Chiarello passed away on Saturday at Queen of the Valley Medical Center in Napa, California, where he was receiving treatment for the allergic reaction. Anaphylactic shock occurs when the immune system reacts to an allergen, causing a drop in blood pressure and narrowing of the airways.
Chiarello’s family expressed their love for him, emphasizing how he brought people together through the joy of shared meals and created unforgettable moments at the table.
“As we navigate this profound loss, we hold dear the moments we cherished with him, both in his kitchens and in our hearts. His legacy will forever live on in the love he poured into every dish and the passion he instilled in all of us to savor life’s flavors,” his family said in a statement.
Chiarello was born on January 26, 1962, in Red Bluff, California. He gained fame as a host on PBS, Food Network, Fine Living, and Cooking Channel for a decade. His Emmy-winning cooking show “Easy Entertaining With Michael Chiarello” ran for 10 seasons on Food Network.
He also made appearances as a guest chef on the “Today” show and “The View.”
In 1987, Chiarello opened his first restaurant, Tra Vigne, in Napa Valley. He later opened other successful restaurants such as Bottega, Ottimo, and Coqueta.
In 1999, he ventured into winemaking and created Chiarello Family Vineyards.
Chiarello was named Chef of the Year by Food & Wine magazine in 1985 and received the Chef of the Year award again in 1995.
“Chef Michael Chiarello’s passion for food and life will forever be etched in our kitchens and our hearts. While we mourn Michael’s passing, we also celebrate his legacy that continues with his restaurants, Bottega, Coqueta (San Francisco and Napa Valley), and Ottimo,” Gruppo Chiarello said in a statement.
“In remembrance, we ask that you join us in celebrating his remarkable journey and the incredible impact he had on the world of food, wine, and family by inviting you to share a meal with your family and friends to remind all of us that the bonds forged over a meal are among life’s most precious treasures.”
Chiarello’s company added that funeral arrangements will be private. Instead of flowers, his family requests donations to Meals on Wheels, “ensuring his commitment to culinary excellence and sustainability lives on.”
