Discover Mrs. Vino's Free Spirited Elixirs

"your Body is not a Temple - it is an amusement park...enjoy the ride." ~ Bourdain


I love Bourdain's rawness (food pun intended) - however, I lead a lifestyle led by Ayurveda & practice holistic herbal healing for my community. It is a life's journey & daily practice - I am excited to blend my passion for wine alongside herbal, free spirited, functional beverages for all.


My inspiration for travel, food & ultimately becoming a certified Sommelier started with my fascination with Anthony Bourdain. I left a lucrative career in Information Technology, cyber security, software program management & client relations for some of the largest Fortune 500 companies in the world.


Why you may ask? Wine is more appealing & what I craved at the end of a long day on video calls to my team in India.


Indulge me - page 40 of Issue No. 65 of edibleWOW: 

" EAT. DRINK. READ. THINK.

edibleWOW Magazine is your guide to the local foodshed in Southeastern Michigan. We tell the stories behind the food you want to eat."


I'll go anywhere - eat and drink anything that is a representation of the local culture. I am here to story tell, laugh, listen & make new friends. Re-tell their stories & share the experience of life. I am open to contract discussions - print, social, live, radio et al.

Certified Chef Matthew Scitney has been cooking professionally for twenty years(20+yrs) and has made many hospitality groups and restaurateurs successful due to his culinary artistry and expertise.  His attention to detail in local, seasonal ingredients makes his culinary experience for guests memorable. His ability to incorporate sustainable partnerships has afforded him the opportunity to cook for all foodies alike; pro and novice. From a business partnership view, Chef Matt has opened many concepts from scratch and helped many restaurateurs save & recover venues in need of a talented, seasoned leader in the kitchen.  Chef Matt’s true passions are the rapport from satisfied guest, turning dining experiences into lifelong memories. He also enjoys teaching/training others and passing on his extensive culinary knowledge. Chef Matt’s personal favorite indulgences are seafood and steaks. When he is not in the kitchen, he is spending time with his children, fishing for his dinner and playing acoustic guitar. He grew up in the industry as his step-Father was a chef for 30 years so he spent his childhood eating many different types of food and being exposed to many cultures. "I love everything about the industry and hope to continue cooking as long as my mind and body allow!"
