Chef Jill Davie has seen the opening of her Santa Monica hotspot Josie among USA Today's 'Top New Restaurant Picks,' Esquire's 'Best New Restaurants,' and Los Angeles Magazine's 'Top 10.' Jill herself has been featured in such food bibles as Gourmet, Food Arts and Art Culinaire, as well as Angeleno with tips on how to stay sane while making merry. She, too, is about to add a new restaurant to her credits, and is applauded for her devotion to local farmers' market fare and taking an organic approach to her recipes.

With her "Meg Ryan type looks and snap cracker wit," Jill also has shared her culinary expertise with national TV audiences, landing featured appearances on Recipe T.V., and Food Network's "Ultimate Restaurants," "Date Plate," and "Party Starters." This chef brought home the $10,000 grand prize on the Food Network's "Hot Chefs: South Beach Competition."
