About Alana Peckham: Alana’s journey in cooking started at the young age of 8 years old. Her mother would do all of the prep and under her supervision, Alana would execute the meals and cook the stir fry’s. She discovered in her teens that she had a love for all things food. Watching cooking shows, before The Food Network came around, and experiencing new foods definitely excited her! This love would lead Alana to enter the professional world of food and cooking. Alana started her career at Dubrulle International Culinary School, followed by positions at Feenie’s and Lumiere before eventually becoming the Executive Chef at CRU and later The Hart House Restaurant. Her experience in these top local restaurants prepared her for The Food Network’s popular show Chopped Canada in 2015, which Alana finished 1st place!
