Iron Symon (10/14)

Sunday, October 14th, 2007

Don't miss Cleveland's own Michael Symon (owner of Lola's & Lolita's) as he heads into round two of the Food network's reality show, The Next Iron Chef.



Destiny seems to have played a role in Symon's journey to the kitchen and to the top of the national food scene. As an 11th grade wrestler at St. Eds High School in Lakewood, he broke his arm while practicing for a meet. Bored, unable to compete and looking for college money, the 16-year-old took a part time job at Gepetto's Ribs as a cook. His affinity for the culinary challenge was realized and this athlete decided he loved to cook.

Good Luck Michael, we are routing for you!
