<p> The roots of Susan Abbott&#39;s culinary inspiration began from watching her father -- a single dad, recreate recipes from &quot;Gourmet&quot; magazine. When Susan&#39;s busy parent didn&#39;t have time to cook, she was fortunate enough to be exposed to fine dining and fabulous restaurant meals starting at a young age. Susan studied Conservation of Natural Resources at UC Berkeley, but was compelled to change paths and attend culinary school at New England Culinary Institute. She has worked as a pastry chef at various well-reknown restaurants and bakeries in Massachusetts, Vermont and Maine. Susan has been the pastry chef at <a href="http://www.rialto-restaurant.com/home/">Rialto Restaurant</a> since 2007, wowing diners with her honest, delicious desserts.</p> <meta content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" http-equiv="Content-Type" /> <meta content="text/css" http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" /> <title></title> <meta content="Cocoa HTML Writer" name="Generator" /> <meta content="949.54" name="CocoaVersion" /> <p> <style type="text/css"> p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 13.0px Helvetica} </style> </p>
