Our History
Professional Chef Services started out as AMC Food Services LLC, in 2008 primarily as a catering company. We've planned and executed amazing themed corporate events in Rockefeller Center, Central Park and several other New York locations. In 2009 we were awarded the contract to prepare breakfast and lunch for the 300 medically fragile students at 3 Newark NJ schools. Since then, our founder Chef Tony Cacace has expanded into education, specialty cake design and vendor product demonstrations.
Born and raised in New York, Chef Tony Cacace has always loved every aspect of food and wanted to share it with everyone he meets. He graduated from the French Culinary Institute in New York City where he was mentored and worked alongside some of the world’s finest chefs. He has traveled internationally to cater large corporate retreats. He then expanded into elaborate cake design and teaching culinary fundamentals. Chef Tony's well known 3 hour in-home cooking classes were featured on Groupon.com many times and afforded him the opportunity to teach hundreds of home cooks the fundamentals of culinary techniques in the comfort of their own kitchens. Later, as the Culinary Manager for Bloomingdale's flagship store on 59th St in New York City, he conducted daily cooking demonstrations, developed cooking classes and secured celebrity guest chef demonstrations and culinary events. Most recently he was the private chef for Robert DeNiro and his family and also Scarlett Johansson during her Broadway run. It was chef Tony's love of fresh local ingredients that lead him to help open New York City’s first all Paleo health restaurant and later a farm to table fine dining resturant in Brooklyn’s growing Park Slope area. He currently consults for new restaurants and helps them create practical seasonal menus that support local farms as well as creating an efficient cost effective infrastructure that will help grow their businesses for years to come.
Professional Chef Services believes that good food should not be a luxury. When it comes to food you should not settle for less than the best possible and PCS can help. Great food should not be limited to restaurants. We want to carry on the belief of masters like Auguste Escoffier, Jacques Pepin and Julia Child and teach everyone we can how to select, prepare and cook quality ingredients. It's our commitment to making you a better cook that you can trust and it's why we believe you'll never be disappointed in any of our services.
"To know how to eat is to know how to live" Auguste Escoffier
