Cheese-stuffed tortellini come tucked in a buttery sauce with sweet peas and a generous grating of Parmesan. Roasted carrots are paired alongside, bringing a little natural sweetness and an easy win on the veggie front.
Chef Chris Ratel has been working with food since the age of 13. He attended the School for Food and Hotel Management in NYC and worked with Park Hyatt Hotels for years. He also worked in NYC staples such as Sardis on Broadway, Lundi Brothers in Brooklyn, and the Oyster Bar in Grand Central Station. Ratel presently works privately for clients and caterers in the NYC and Hudson Valley areas. Residing both in the Hudson Valley area and Brooklyn, he has developed a strong appreciation for food in its simplest, most organic form and hands-on knowledge from the local farmers and purveyors who are growing it.
