Our Philosophy
At The Salted Sicilian, food is a language—spoken in texture, temperature, and tone. Rooted in classical technique and Mediterranean warmth, fresh flavors meet refined execution, resulting in cuisine that feels timeless yet distinctly modern.
Menus are designed to honor tradition while embracing innovation. Every element is curated to evoke presence, elegance, and memory.
Crafted for those who seek more than a meal, The Salted Sicilian experience is immersive, intimate, and unforgettable. From the first impression to the final bite, every detail is a gesture of intentional luxury—where hospitality becomes art, and flavor becomes feeling.
True luxury isn’t loud—it’s felt. It lingers in the senses, reshapes time, and leaves guests with the quiet certainty they’ve experienced something rare.

About Chef
The Salted Sicilian was born from a lifelong devotion to the art of hospitality—where every plate tells a story and every event becomes a memory. Founded by CIA-trained Chef Kristi, the brand blends classical culinary technique with Mediterranean soul, offering clients more than catering: it’s a curated experience of elegance, warmth, and refined flavor.
From the moment Kristi first stepped into a professional kitchen, she knew her calling was to create moments that linger—through food, ambiance, and connection. After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY, she spent over a decade honing her craft alongside celebrated chefs and visionary creatives. The Salted Sicilian is the culmination of that journey: a luxury catering brand where culinary excellence meets storytelling, and where every detail—from the tablescape to the final flourish—is designed to delight.
Whether it’s an intimate dinner or a grand celebration, Kristi brings her signature blend of precision, passion, and Mediterranean warmth to every event. The Salted Sicilian isn’t just a name—it’s a promise of unforgettable flavor, timeless elegance, and hospitality that feels like home.
