BIOGRAPHY
In 1991, Anton Testino attended Morris County Vocational Tech in Denville, NJ for culinary arts. He graduated at the top of his class. He won many amateur competitions. In 1992, he was accepted to Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY. There he furthered his education until 1994. The eager chef opened his first restaurant in 1995, Antonio's Pizza Pasta and More. It was located on Route 5 in Edgewater, NJ. He was very successful for a year and a half until Edgewater underwent major construction, hurting his business and forcing him to close in 1998. Testino then worked at several restaurants in Northern New Jersey continuing his hands-on education.
