Just 4-11 and weighing under 100 pounds, this 35-year-old Las Vegas native may be petite, but she knows how to throw her weight around, both in the kitchen and on the stripper pole. Before manning the stoves full-time at Larry Flynt’s HUSTLER Club, Las Vegas, Sonya appeared there regularly as a dancer. While she loved performing, she secretly longed to cook and so decided to teach herself: “I’d spend all my downtime watching cooking shows and making whatever they would make.” Now her business cards read “Topless Chef,” and you can find her hard at work keeping HUSTLER patrons and staff well-fed and happy. “What I enjoy about living in Vegas is the diverse culture and different, amazing foods that we have,” she explains, adding that personally her tastes in men and food tend to run ordinary rather than exotic: “At home I make whatever I feel like eating, anything from spaghetti and homemade pizza to steak and pasta. In a romantic partner I look for someone who can make me laugh, who doesn’t take life too seriously, likes to have fun and loves to eat.”
