Melissa Torre of Cookie Confidential

Local Lady We Love, and Where To Meet Her
Meet Melissa Torre. Cookie Confidante, inflatable animal hunter, and imminent Food Network star. When she's not shooting multiple Food Network and Cooking Channel productions (see her next up on Road Trip with G Garvin), she's firing that sweet Glock at Philadelphia Archery & Gun Club (where she won it last Glock Day!)

Where can you find her: Tattooed gun show in full effect? Just like you, she spends her downtime at Tattooed Mom's and Morgan's Pier; unlike you, she's behind the trigger bar.
