Chef’s Corner
Meet the Macon Centreplex Executive Chef! Chef Amelia DeAngio is originally from Norfolk, Virginia. She has lived in numerous states, including Hawaii, California, Colorado, and North Carolina. Amelia graduated from Johnson & Wales University in Charlotte, North Carolina, where she quickly learned to love the catering and events side of food service. Her favorite food is her father’s homemade pizza, but also has been known to eat her weight in chips and salsa. Amelia lives in Macon with her dog, Gouda, and cats, Olive and Asiago.
The Chef’s Corner is a place for you to find fun and delicious recipes, tips, and kitchen tricks that you can try at home. Some of these are featured items sold in the Macon Coliseum and Macon City Auditorium concession areas, some are specialized for our private catering events, and some are just trusted favorites of Chef Amelia. We hope you enjoy and feel that creative spark to get in your kitchen and give one – or more – of these recipes a go! So from our kitchen to yours, Chef’s Corner Recipes!
