A passion for taste...

Along with the every day eats at the Café, Paula sought to expand her catering and bring fresh, innovative cuisine to a larger audiences around New Haven county.
When in she not in the kitchen, she's a dedicated mom to her son Mathew, living and enjoying life on the Connecticut Shoreline.
