Meet Chef Bria | Chef & CEO impacting economical change in the culinary world.

We had the good fortune of connecting with Chef Bria and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Chef, what is the most important factor behind your success?
In my opinion the most important factor behind the success of Bria’s Italian Fusion is consistency. Consistency it what drives the success for any business because it shows your clients/customers that you are dedicated, it helps the business owner be organized and build relationships, and it can help the business owner adapt and/or pivot when something does not work.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
My business, Bria’s Italian Fusion LLC is impacting economical change in the culinary world by providing affordable culinary services. From flat rate meal prep service, to weekly cooking classes for a low price, to fair priced catering services we can meet anyone’s budget because our motto is “Your culinary experience shouldn’t rely on your bank account”. And this is what I am most proud of. I am where I am today because I refuse to give up my dreams. As many notable people have said fall down nine times, but get up 10. It’s never easy and there’s many roadblocks along the way but the way I make it through each time is because I try to stay positive and I always look for a solution because it is out there. In fact due to the pandemic I actually moved states from Colorado to Alabama but I pivoted my business to still serve my Colorado supporters by opening Virtual Cooking Classes and coming soon i’ll be offering shipped handmade pasta kits! If I could share one thing for the world to know about my brand is that while I may not have the frills and thrills you’d get from high end suppliers I guarantee you will feel heard, welcomed, and appreciated by Bria’s Italian Fusion because we know what its like to be a customer and our goal is to make your culinary experience amazing every time.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Well unfortunately with the covid pandemic some of my favorite places have permantely closed however I first would take them to stanley marketplace to support all local entrepreneurs doing their best to provide amazing products, and services to their customers. Then i’d take them up to Alamosa to enjoy the stars and the out of this world experience of the Sand Dunes, Then we’d go to the Joyful Journey hot springs for a magnificent view and have dinner at the quaint but amazing chinese restaurant Hunan Chinese Restaurant. And we’d probably end on 16 street mall experiencing the closest thing Colorado has to a mini version of NY Times Square where we can see some musicians, artists, and local shops. Theres always something fun going on in the 16 street mall!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I definitely would not have the success I have gained without the support of Denver based Micro-lender Rmmfi (Rocky Mountain Micro Finance Institute) they have helped me rediscover my passion, invest in myself, and support other aspiring business owners. Also I would be remised if I did not mention that the encouragement from my immediate family has been priceless to my success as they continuously motivate me. There’s also so many other people to mention that have helped me along the way so just a quick shoutout to all my friends as well!
