🧑🍳 Last Call, Chef.
Today, we hang our aprons a little heavier.
We say goodbye to a fiery force in the kitchen, a teacher, a competitor, and a culinary icon — Chef Anne Burrell. Her signature spiky blonde hair, fierce red lipstick, and unmatched passion for food lit up our screens and inspired so many of us to cook boldly and live fully.
Anne didn’t just teach us how to season our food — she taught us how to bring joy to the plate. From “Worst Cooks in America” to her fiery Food Network battles, she led with love, skill, and an unmistakable spark that made every dish unforgettable.
As chefs, we often say, “Make it with love, or don’t make it at all.”
Anne lived that mantra.
🕊️ Rest easy, Chef. The kitchen won’t be the same without you.
