Lisa Vitiello of Simply Lisa's Gourmet Food & Catering in Parsippany, New Jersey

A LITTLE HISTORY ...

Growing up first generation Italian, Lisa Vitiello had the privilege of dining on plenty of gourmet tasting, home cooked meals.  Some of Lisa’s fondest memories include helping out her parents around a simmering stove.  The smell of fresh herbs and spices infiltrated the entire house and laughter filled the air while family gathered together to celebrate life through good food.

Native to Naples, and San Georgia Lire Italy, Lisa’s parents instilled in her from a young age the importance of using fresh, premium ingredients and never skimping on quantity or quality.  Being a restaurateur in New Jersey, her father excelled in putting an authentic, rustic flare on modern Italian-American dishes.  He mentored and primed young Lisa to become the experienced, successful caterer she is today.  With 22 years of restaurant experience under her belt, Lisa is excited and eager to bring her family's prized and secret recipes to life at your next luncheon, party, or special celebration.  Reawaken your sensory palate with her innovative twist on classic entrées and indulge in her wide selection of HorD’Oeures, antipastos, and exotic salads.  Selections are prepared with fresh garden grown produce, and imported gourmet deli meats and cheeses.

From her customizable menu options to her attentive execution and presentation, Simply Lisa’s will provide your guests with an unforgettable and flawless culinary dining experience.
