About the Chefs Christabel Padmore and Patrick Simpson each bring
with them more than a decade of professional experience in the culinary
industry in Canada and abroad.
Christabel is a Red Seal chef, with a professional background in
culinary instruction, catering and event planning. She is also a FoodSafe
instructor, a mandatory course for all food service workers in BC, and
she holds a Master's degree in adult education from the University of
British Columbia.
"When I'm dining at a catered party, it pains me to
see boring menus and sloppy executions," says Christabel. She insists that while the food
doesn't have to complicated, the greatest effort should be made to
maintain the integrity and freshness of the products. "I like to think
that Little Piggy clients get the benefit of both chefs and critics,"
she says.
Patrick is also a Red Seal chef, with professional experience in Canada, the
UK and Australia. In Canada, he has worked as a chef and caterer for Delta Hotels,
Coast Hotels and Marriott Hotels.
More than just food, throwing a party or organizing an event is about
teamwork and Little Piggy will work with clients to ensure that our role
in your event fits seamlessly. "We're good listeners and we ask lots of
questions," says Patrick. "Some clients know exactly what they want and
we work to make that happen, but others enjoy the chance to talk with us
and develop a customized approach."
