what people are saying...

"Thank you again for such a splendid meal. Your attention to detail and your generous portions were outstanding. I don't think I've ever eaten better lasagna. I had enough leftovers next day to feed 12 members of my family, and they too were very complimentary. I will mention your name with much praise whenever catering is mentioned."

"My first experience with Rustica Catering was during a "surprise dinner" organized by my wife for my birthday anniversary. She had asked chef Raffaele to prepare a 7 courses meal for four persons. What an experience we had. They provided absolutely everything. The setup of the table, the unique choice of the plates added a tang to the food. The meal was incredible, and the service top notch. Even if my kitchen is near the dinning room it was quiet over there. They managed the preparation, the cooking and the cleaning without disturbing us. We had a fabulous evening. For a unique experience, I can highly recommend chef Raffaele and his colleague. We look forward to our next dinner with them, sooner than later."

About Raff...

Raff is the Executive Chef and Proprietor of Rustica Private Dining.  Growing up in an Italian immigrant family he has been influenced by the idea of sheer freshness and simplicity when it comes to dining.  He has a passion for using the flavours and freshness found locally and is glad that it exists here on PEI.  Before entering the culinary realm his career spanned various business roles, from marketing to operations management.  Dining in the best restaurants, or entertaining others, however, has always been a passion.  And like many do in this day and age, he decided to follow it.  He relocated to Charlottetown to attend the Culinary Institute of Canada.  From there he spent some time in Quebec, discovering its food culture and working at Chateau Mont Sainte Anne.  He then returned to Charlottetown and since then has worked in various restaurants throughout PEI, including The Selkirk at the Delta Prince Edward Hotel, Dayboat Restaurant and Glasgow Hills Resort & Golf Club.  From commis to chef, his standards have always been high and uncompromising - and they are now channelled into Rustica Private Dining, the "Island-inspired catering service".
