"Begin with excellence to finish with excellence" |

Using the only the best and freshest of ingredients,
Chef Robert Patchen prepares and serves contemporary
foods in the style of classic Italian cuisine. Since
1996, as a result of the chef's development and creation
of delicious, unique menu items and exquisite plating
presentations, PACI has offered seasonal foods in a
fresh and flavorful style. |
| A self-taught chef, Patchen's
creativity started at the early age of 8 years old when he was apprenticed in the kitchen of
his grandmother's restaurant. It was in this atmosphere that his versatile style developed. |
| Steeped in this classic Italian
cuisine, his style has been influenced by such world famous traditionalists as Marcella Hazan
and Giuliano Buglialli. In adapting his ideas to menus, Chef Patchen has called upon the
inspiration of contemporaries, like Danny Romano, Peter Kump, Joanne Killeen and George
Germon. |
Chef's Patchen's
zest in the kitchen is matched by his enthusiasm for great wines. PACI has accumulated an
extraordinary collection from the finest vineyards in Italy and features a wine cellar that
provides the opportunity to make selections from one of the best wines lists in Connecticut.
Patchen's skills in preparing menu offerings with select wines, further enhances an
appreciation of new ways to blend food and wine. Patrons may sample fine vineyard offerings at
special "wine dinners" throughout the year.
