(published by Plum). Silvia is also a regular contributor to Delicious and Delicious On Sunday since 2014.

This show also earned her a TV WEEKLY LOGIE award nomination as the Best New Talent in 2015. Silvia is also the co-writer, co-producer and host of 2016 ABC prime-time show “Silvia’s Italian Table”.

Silvia’s presentation is funny and warm, and peppered with interesting facts and personal anecdotes about the legacy of Italian cooking. Her passion is to share delicious recipes that have been passed down through her family for generations. Her food is traditional, authentic, simple, and embedded in the legacy of the hands of her mother and grandmothers.Italians are fiercely passionate and opinionated about their food, its preparation and its consumption, and Silvia is no exception
