Rising Star Chef Tyler Stone Explores French Culinary Delights on Paris Tour
Piedmont, CA (PRWEB) November 14, 2006 -- "Eat with your eyes." This is the advice of rising star Chef Tyler Stone of Sacramento, California. Stone, who has been cooking since he was 4 years old, has a full resume for such a young culinary talent.
A graduate of the Napoli Culinary Academy, Stone makes regular television appearances on Sacramento & Co. aired on News 10 and on KCRA 3, both in Sacramento, CA. Stone is a spokesperson for the American Heart Association where he emphasizes the preparation of healthy and enjoyable cuisine. He has been featured in the Sacramento Bee and Sacramento Magazine.

Ubiquity International is pleased to work with Chef Tyler Stone to offer Paris Gastronomique! - a French culinary and cultural exploration of Paris.
Asked why he chose Paris for his first culinary tour, Stone replied "I especially enjoy preparing French cuisine because of the emphasis on presentation. Paris has some of the world's best chefs and the love of food and wine is such an important part of French culture. French cuisine has influenced so many other styles of cooking that it only made sense to start at the beginning."
Stone has worked with Thomas Talboy, founder of Ubiquity International to create a premium culinary and gastronomic experience. Highlights include:

The culinary experience is accentuated by cultural exploration, including:
