Falling for Flavor: Celebrity Chef Ryan Rondeno Brings Star Power and Seasonal Magic to the Table
This season, Rondeno invites fans to bring a little celebrity sparkle into their own kitchens with his bold, autumn-perfect dish: Butternut Squash with Guajillo Chile, Pomegranate, and Smoked Almonds — a recipe that proves fall cooking can be both elegant and family-friendly.
“Fall is about warmth, connection, and a little spice,” says Chef Ryan. “The roasted squash brings sweetness, the guajillo chile adds heat, and the pomegranate makes it pop with color and brightness. It’s the kind of dish that brings everyone to the table.”
A Taste of Fame at Creole Fest
Fans recently lined up in Brooklyn, NY for the sold-out Creole Fest, where over 1,200 guests came to meet Chef Ryan Rondeno and grab a signed copy of his brand-new cookbook, Modern Creole: Bold Flavors for Every Table. The event was a celebration of culture, cuisine, and creativity — with Chef Ryan serving signature bites like Sweet Potato Beignets, Pickled Shrimp Salad, and a tangy Salsa Macha Vinaigrette that had everyone coming back for seconds.
The energy was pure magic — a perfect prelude to the autumn season. With fall leaves swirling through the city streets and laughter filling the air, it felt like a little slice of Louisiana charm had taken over Brooklyn.
