Tom Colicchio May Be a Top Chef, But Have You Met His Top Dog, Piper?
Piper would never use frozen scallops.
Tom Colicchio is not especially active on social media, but when he does use his Instagram, he posts photos of only four types of things: Food, food, food, and his dog, Piper.
The Top Chef judge and mentor got his flat-coated retriever from a responsible breeder over eight years ago, but according to the chef, she seems to have Peter Pan syndrome. The beautiful pupper has a healthy appetite for playtime—Tom has shared plenty of videos of Piper diving and splashing in the family pool, and his wife Lori Silverbush once told People magazine, “If she could, she would be playing 23 out of every 24 hours.”
Not that being active is a bad thing—especially when your “table scraps” are actually decadent leftovers from places like Colicchio & Sons, Fowler & Wells, and Craft! Here are some of our favorite snaps and videos of Piper being the most playful (and well-fed) pupper in town.
