Testimonials
"Colleen Morrissey (Aug 8, 2023)
Chef Pasquale was outstanding from beginning to end. The proposed menu he sent over had so many delicious, inventive ideas and he was really happy to be flexible to accommodate one pregnant vegan in my group. He seemed very passionate about produce and excitedly suggested a number of in season vegetable dishes for her. His response time was very quick and he was very attentive (asking if I needed napkins, plates, cookware, ice etc etc.) He was very punctual, he told me he'd arrived at 5pm but was there at 4:50pm. We threw a few unexpected curveballs his way - I did not know that my venue was a 5th floor walkup. On top of that, the oven was broken. Chef never complained and delivered a wonderful evening. One of my attendees even asked for his contact information to use for future events.”
"Chase Madison - Jul 10 2023
Chef Pasquale Frola far exceeded all of our expectations. The amount of effort he dedicates to his craft is something to behold. The food was outrageously good and Chef Pasquale was a delight. I cannot say enough good things about the evening. It was perfect. I highly recommend Chef Pasquale. The evening was the pinnacle of culinary excellence.
"Mike Sloan - Jul 19 2023
Dinner with Chef Paco was a great experience! His passion for cooking and using quality ingredients was very apparent and a delight to learn about. Every dish that was prepared was superb. Even with a dietary restriction, Chef Paco was able to create a delicious menu that will not be soon forgotten. I'd highly recommend Chef Paco!!

My family and I had an amazing experience with Chef Pasquale Frola. We had him come for my mother's birthday and it was great. Every single course was delicious! Pasquale himself was very personable! Overall 10 out of 10 experience would recommend to anyone and would 100% book him again for another event.
