If you’re a fan of Alex Guarnaschelli, then chances are you’re pretty familiar with someone very close to Iron Chef and Alex vs America star. And no, we’re not talking about her adorable dog León, who she adopted almost a year ago. We’re talking about her daughter Ava Clark. Alex and Ava seem like quite the duo, regularly appearing in each other’s social media pictures, videos, and Instagram lives. Now, they’re embarking on the ultimate parent-child adventure together, at least for a famous chef and her foodie daughter: they wrote a cookbook, and it’s available for pre-order now.

What you need to know about Clark is that, just like her mom, she’s got a passion for cooking. How many kids do you know who can make whole glazed duck with an apple tart tatin for dessert…and how many adults, for that matter? Not only is Clark a whiz in the kitchen already, she’s also seriously smart and has a dry, witty sense of humor that has us seeing big things for her in the future.
